[Elecraft] 6M Preamp

[Bill Johnson]

Julian,

".... clear that this is as a result of a design compromise made on the
basis that HF performance was paramount"  I don't think it was a compromise,
if it was intentional to keep performance at peak.  Weak signal work usually
requires preamp at the antenna not at the radio, and personally I'd rather
have the focus on MDS with excellent ears.  The excellent ears without MDS
are useless in high noise and strong adjacent sigs.


73,

Still, I'm glad to hear from other contributors to this thread who have said
that they have found the stock K3 just fine. Given that I'm in a fairly
noisy urban environment, perhaps the preamp would have been a waste of money
for me anyway.
