Per-Tore,
I have not tried it, but from a look at the K3 Block Diagram, it would
appear that you could connect the external receiver to the RX ANT OUT
jack (requires the KXV3 option) and tell the K3 to use the RX ANT (that
is a per band setting).
The K3 Low Pass Filters would be in the path between the antenna and
that output, but it is behind the TR switch which should protect the
external receiver during transmit. Muting the external receiver is not
part of that connection - you are on your own to devise the means for
muting that receiver during transmit.

Hello,
My K3 has KPA3 and KAT3 installed, but not the KRX3
The K3 has a nice way of switching antennas when using both main and sub-rx.
I want to use an external rx (R&S EK 896). Is there a nice way to do this?
My main concern is of course to protect the external rx when transmitting
with the K3.
73es,
