[Elecraft] A few thoughts on the K3 as an AM SWBC receiver

[callen1155]

Interesting post Bill, and thanks for the url.

I also enjoy listening to SWBC. I don't have the K3 general coverage module
nor the 6k filter. I listen to SWBC with my Radio Shack DX-394 receiver.
I've thought about using the K3 for SWLing. I wonder how the K3 would
perform compared to the DX-394? 

Also, I'm currently using a  non-resonant dipole of about 200 ft in length.
I switch this back and forth between the K3 (with internal ATU) and the
DX-394 (kind of a pain).
How does your dedicated SWL antenna differ?

And lastly, do you use an antenna tuner with you K3 SWBC listening?

Thanks and hope you don't mind the questions.
