Olli,

I agree if the frequency is higher than 6 meters, but at 50 MHz and down, the cable loss does not appreciable degrade the noise figure (unless the feedline is exceptionally long). That does not equate to those frequencies above the 50 MHz band.

The real answer depends on your particular situation (antenna gain and feedline loss).

The slightly higher gain of the PR6-10 with the same noise figure
then might be an advantage by helping overcome cable loss.

How should that work if the preamp is mounted at the K3 between RXANT in & out? It's after the cable then, isn't it? ;-) If you want to overcome cable loss buy a mast-mounted preamp.
