Thanks. Well, I figured it out in that based on reading Fred’s book and the email from Fred, I installed the cable from the ATU to the KRX3.
The issue is that the installation makes it seem like BOTH these items are optional (if you only want to run the sub RX off the main antenna and NOT do diversity reception of any sort). I say that because the manual for the KRX3 install states if you do not want to di wither of the optional antenna steps to skip ahead. That is fine and I have no issue with that. The challenge is the commands in the radio to enable the KRX3 are not intuitive to me. Maybe it is just me as I tend to be quite literal. I submit there should be config options. One is KRX3A with two options for ON or OFF and the other config item should be Sub RX AUX Ant with choices of NA, KAT3 or BNC. Short of two separate items, if the KRX3 config option was OFF, ON-MAIN, RX-KAT, RX-BNC that would be OK too. That would make it more self-explanatory. But, all is well, the SubRx and new synths are working, the new DVR is working and the service monitor says it all checks out. Thanks to all that helped. Regards, Tom Schaefer 727-437-2771 P.S.
