I use one between my K3 and 160 meter flag antenna for receive.
No attenuation at all in received signal and no worries now about too much RF getting 
back into the K3 from the receive ant line.  
I second what Dan, W8CAR said.  Peace of mind, (small insurance to pay to protect your expensive HF XCVR)
