I just converted one of my144 MHz home built pre-amps to 6 meters. I have no test equipment other than listening to beacons but I can tell you that it makes one hell of a difference in signals. I now can really hear the noise floor. I am using a MGF-1302. The gain is probably 20dB but I have added a 10 dB pad at the ouptut of the pre-amp so that the noise will not overdrive the K3.

If your going to be active on 6, I would recommend same.
