[Elecraft] [K3] PR6 to RCV ANT - BNC Connectors

[N3XX]

Thanks Doug.  I have ordered a couple of them from DigiKey.  I don't know 
the brand of the connectors I'm using now, but should have just thought of 
looking for Amphenol to begin with.
Thanks also to others who responded on & off list.

73,
Tim - N3XX
