Mike,
We'll take preamp 2's gain into account for SMTR ABS in an upcoming firmware
release. We also need to account for the 5/10/15 dB attenuation steps available
in the K3S.
By the way, the MDS on 12/10/6 meters with preamp 2 engaged is a blistering 145
dBm, typical! Have fun--

It appears that the gain of the Pre-2 has not been factored into the
S-meter ABS setting unlike that of the Pre-1. I can understand this
being the case with the outboard amps, PR-6 and family. However, given
that this function ins now internal maybe it could be taken into account.
Regards,
A very similar experience here as well.
One thing I dislike, is the flashing PRE when preamp 2 is on. It is annoying
to see the constant flashing, to me that generally means there is something
wrong. But it looks like that part of the K3’s display doesn’t have the
ability to display something
Right now 6 meters is marginally open between KS and the Southeast US.
(NC down to FL). First chance I've had to check out the "Preamp 2"
function on the new KX3VB. Boy what a difference it makes. Had it set
to Preamp 1 and just barely hearing signals so went to Preamp 2 and
really good copy
