Hi Joe et all, Thanks for all of the answers!
Its clear now; there is Y-splitters which are not OK for K3 usage as all 15pins should be wired 1:1, and this not the case with all VGA Y-splitters. Good thing is that there is also available those which are OK, but should be checked first that they are 1:1 whith each of the pins. Also one good product is the "breakout board", which could be esily wired for diffrent purposes. I think I will get one Y-splitter and also breakout-board for test purposes. 73 de jukka - OH2MA 21:12, Joe Subich, W4TV kirjoitti: > > The K3 requires all 15 pins be wired through and none connected > together.
