Terry: Another thought - I haven't ordered a PR6 yet but am planning to shortly. Since I have minimal space behind the K3 on the operating shelf for cables etc I am planning to mount the PR6 to the double male BNC's on the back of the K3 but also use a pair of right angle BNCs as well so that the connectors from the PR6 will point up. I haven't done any other measurements yet and it may cause interference with the plug from the microKEYER II going to the RS232 connector. If it does I'll have to use the short length BNC to BNC cables as indicated by Eric.
Thought I'd mention it as a possibility. 73, Doug VE3MV ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft" <e...@elecraft.com> To: "Terry Schieler" <terry.schie...@wirelessusa.com> Cc: <elecraft@mailman.qth.net> Sent: Thursday, April 29, 2010 3:13 PM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Fw: PR6 6 Meter Preamp Installation > We designed thePR6 to mount with the double male BNCs and sell the > BNC-MM's just for this purpose.
