[Elecraft] Fwd: [Elecraft_K3] Filter Confusion

Jim,

If you have a *long* length of old 50 ohm coax hiding somewhere, it might be 
useful as a dummy load at some frequencies if its loss is high enough, but 
make sure that its centre conductor and braid are not shorted.

IMHO a good dummy load is worth buying or building.
