[Elecraft] K3 on 6 Meters

[Bill W5WVO]

Yes, Dave, you can rest assured that there are many present and near-future K3 
owners waiting with bated breatrh for this year's sporadic-E season to start. 
Where you are in AZ, monitor 50125 kHz for occasional "early bird" openings 
starting around mid-April; the "main event" gets going around May 15 and lasts 
through August 15, typically. If you have never experienced a 6-meter 
sporadic-E season, you're in for a real fun (and probably addictive) 
experience!

And get that 1.8 kHz roofing filter ready for the ARRL and CQ VHF contests in 
June/July. If the band is open, you'll need it!
