Yes, Dave, you can rest assured that there are many present and near-future K3 owners waiting with bated breatrh for this year's sporadic-E season to start. Where you are in AZ, monitor 50125 kHz for occasional "early bird" openings starting around mid-April; the "main event" gets going around May 15 and lasts through August 15, typically. If you have never experienced a 6-meter sporadic-E season, you're in for a real fun (and probably addictive) experience!

And get that 1.8 kHz roofing filter ready for the ARRL and CQ VHF contests in June/July. If the band is open, you'll need it!

6 meters for the time being,
but Jim assures me that things should "start happening" on that band
pretty soon. So, now is the time to get ready. In the meantime, I
plan to put this thing up in the air a little bit, and see what I
might hear. It may only be locals, but even that should work out
better than with my R8 (which does cover 6 meters) since the Moxon
will be horizontally polarized. That seems to be the choice among
folks around here.
