[Elecraft] K3 in ARRL10

[Jorge Diez - CX6VM]

Hello,

Sorry for the delay, but I was in a 6 hours drive trip yesterday.

After reading the emails, I stopped at AC7AC email. I am very sure that I
have band noise. I heard a noticeable SHHHHHHHHHHHHH that I didn´t heard in
the TS850. I can do some records later this week when I go back to the
station.

My setup is a ArraySolution sixpack, so I switch the 10 mts position to the
K3 and TS850.  The radios are connected to different models of amps and swr
meters, but I don´t know if this will affect.

I didn´t use the PRE.

73,
Jorge

I operated the 10m contest this weekend with my K3 and I did have the
preamp on. In that condition, I heard a lot more than apparently could
hear me.

If this could be quantified some way, perhaps we could get away from just
comparing opinions?
