[Elecraft] K3 deaf on 6m comparing to a FCDP+ ?

[Johnny Siu]

Hello Erwin,
 
No doubt K3 is deaf in 6m.  This is the reason why there is PR-6 or PR6-10 pre-amp offered by Elecraft.  Upon the installation of those pre-amp, K3 is in par with other radios in 6m under the same class.
 
Apart from the choices from Elecraft, you may consider http://www.ha8et.hu/ extra-6 which is contest grade pre-amplifier.
 
To be fair to K3, if local RF noise is high in your area, pre-amp will not help you anyway.

TNX & 73,


Johnny VR2XMC

主題︰ [Elecraft] K3 deaf on 6m comparing to a FCDP+ ?


Hi everybody,
since I own a FunVubeDonglePro+  I think my K3 is a bit deaf comparing 
those 2 rigs on same antenna.
Even with switched on preamp on the K3 it's sensitivity is worse  to the 
FCDP+
I only heard about that the K3 is deaf on 6m but never had a comparison.
Is there a fix to make the K3 hearing better on 6m ?
