Hey Ron,
 
Thanks for posting this info.  KPH / KSM puts out a big signal on LF as well as HF
 
When the Liberty Ship Jeremiah O'Brien gets under way in San Francisco Bay there is a YL operator that communicates with KPH from the ship.  She is very skilled at sending with a Viproplex bug.  (Puts me to shame!)

 It is great to hear these commercial CW operators in action.
 
To include some Elecraft content :-)   I have not added the  KXV3 board to my K3 yet.  I am hoping that the direct RX antenna input will give better sensitivity on LF (500 Khz) and also the Medium Wave band.
