I don't know about two K3's but I can tell you that my K3 was swamped during Field Day by the phone station operating with a beam pointed away from me, directly off the end of my dipole, separated by about that 500' distance. That was CW vs SSB frequency spacing.
We were ok when operating on separate bands; just not on the same band.

For Sweepstakes, we are thinking about using a large multi-multi contesting station to house two separate single operator efforts. The station has two yagi antennas on each band, separated by about 500 feet, and element tip to element tip when beaming the US (antennas pointed in parallel). The thought has crossed my mind that two K3's in such a situation might be able to deal with the other signal, even strong and so close, if one station is at the low end of the band (say 14005) and the other is at the high end of the band (say 14075). Would anyone care to weigh in about the likelihood of the receivers surviving such behavior? ***dan, K6IF _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
