[Elecraft] RX antenna

Hi!  My K3 arrived last Wednesday and has since been set up and is 
now in use.  It is a great transceiver I am enjoying getting to kno.

I am using a Hampod to provide access via voice output and am 
wondering about the RX antenna button on the K3 front pannel.  When I 
turn the RX antenna off and on, the Ham Pod announces "Pre-amp." When 
I press the Pre-amp button the Ham Pod annunces "Pre-amp enabled/ 
disabled" depending on which press of the button is active.

Is the Pre-amp announcement on the RX antenna button what you see on 
the screen?  I would have thought that the button for the RX antenna 
would be announced as the Rx antenna off/on.
By trying  out the transceiver I was able to interpret ok so am not 
having any problems.

Thanks in anticipation of an answer/explanation.
