The K3 is pretty well protected -- if, for example, you hit it with too 
much signal, the attenuator will kick in and the preamp will turn off. 
And if that doesn't reduce the signal enough, you'll get a HIGH SIGNAL 
warning on your display. In addition to that, there's a diode on the 
front end.

I'd verify that an RX is getting overloaded before spending dollars on 
this product. With antennas 300 ft apart, it's unlikely that you're 
going blow anything up unless the other station is running an amp.
