Thanks Doug. I have ordered a couple of them from DigiKey. I don't know
the brand of the connectors I'm using now, but should have just thought of
looking for Amphenol to begin with.
Thanks also to others who responded on & off list.

GM Tim: I also have my PR6 connected using a pair of Male-Male BNC
adapters - I'm using Amphenol and have never experienced the problem you
speak of. The part number in the 2011 DigiKey catalogue is ACX1062-ND @
$6.32 each (pg 456)
Hope that helps.

Subject: [Elecraft] [K3] PR6 to RCV ANT - BNC Connectors
Hi all,
I'm using a PR6 preamp (switched on by DIGOUT1 from the ACC connector
when I'm on 6 mtrs) connected to the K3 receive antenna connectors with a
pair of male-male BNC connectors. I have been having a problem with
audio levels dropping as much as 15 dB (as seen on WSJT Specjt window).
This is always corrected by unplugging the male-male BNC connectors from
the receive antenna connectors on the K3 and plugging back in again. I'm
hoping the problem is just the male-male BNC connectors I'm using to
connect the PR6, and not the connectors on the K3. Has anyone else seen
this problem, and have you found a good brand of male-male BNC connectors
that corrected the problem? If you have been able to correct this
problem with good male-male BNCs, what brand are they, and where did you
get them?
Thanks for any info.
