[Elecraft] K3 RX Ant question - KBPF3 not working.

[Kim Bottles]

I find that my KBPF3 makes SWL worse. If I turn it off in the configure menu it works much better, so I must think it is not working. I sent a message to K3 support and am waiting for an answer. My KBPF3 is brand new so I am guessing that despite wearing the wrist grounding strap and using a ground pad the static may have gotten mine.

I have a K2 with the KBPF3 option, among others.  When I listen to the BC band with the KBPF3, it sounds great, but when I listen to any shortwave frequencies, the KBPF3 does not make a real difference.  Am I missing something?
