[Elecraft] K3 Preamp 2

[Ignacy]

Barry is in VK. If he operates from the middle of nowhere, local noise is
nonexistent and local activity is extremely sparse. It means you hear lots
of weak stations, most of which you have little chance of working unless you
have good antennas and run power. So preamp is a plus in receive but it
causes frustration when trying to call.

I remember frustration as VK2/NO9E hearing many US on 10m, with little
success except contesting. Also the band full of US station during the ARRL
160m contest. 

Ignacy, NO9E
