[Elecraft] Receive antennas

Hi Jerry,

The K3 is better protected than many other transceivers:

<http://www.elecraft.com/manual/K3%20Schematics.pdf>

and

<http://www.elecraft.com/K3/K3FAQ.htm#Front%20end%20protection>.

Nonetheless there have been reports of returning power causing problems 
in the transmitter. We haven't observed this here in Bavaria, so I can 
not really say very much about this. If you search the list archives, 
you should be able to find more information.
