The solution that elecraft showed at Hamcomm was an external unit that
plugged into the k3 back panel

Ian,
One also needs perhaps 10db of noise "headroom" for modes like JT65
which copy many db below the noise.
My opinion is the an internal option for this preamp is needed.
Dangling still another box with the attendent extra cables outside the
K3 isn't desirable here. Yes the preamp does handle the LF rx antenna--
still more complication.
Perhaps Elecraft can come up with both an internal and external fix and
let the market decide. I'd like nothing better than pushing the preamp
button and getting a souped up 6M preamp without more external junk.
However Elecraft knows the guts of the K3 and perhaps an internal fix
isn't practical. At least it would be nice to know that.
