[Elecraft] Re: K3 6 Meter Preamp

[Dave Agsten]

I found that the K3, as built, was a bit better on 6 meters than either my Pro III or TS-2000x. (A/B/C switching) I've since sold both of those radios. I bought a 6 meter preamp from High Sierra Microwave. It has about the same specs as the ARR P50VDG mentioned on here and the Elecraft offering. I use low band receiving antennas and merely switch them to the RX In via a patch panel. I'll use RX Out to the 6 meter preamp and just patch it in the same way when I'm on 6 meters. There aren't many times when I have to switch from 160 or 80 CW to 6 meters so a patch panel works just fine.
