A 3 element beam would be nice, but to start, a Squalo type antenna
(horizontal) will work just fine for Es openings.
Look at the KU4AB: http://ku4ab.com/6m-horiz.html
M2 antennas: http://www.m2inc.com/products/6m/6mloop.html
And look at Ehams reviews for other equivalents:

Once you go through a great Es summer, you might want to look at
more of an antenna.
Since 6 meters in built into the K3, I do encourage any K3 owners who
have never tried six to just simply try it this summer.
