While receiving on 20 meters, for example, on the main Receiver, can I receive another band using the Sub-Receiver connected to the Receiver In port? If CONFIG:VFO IND is set to YES, use the AUX port for the SubRx antenna instead of RX ANT IN. The SUB can listen to MAIN's antenna (Transmit Ant or RX Ant) or to AUX. From the K3 Owner's Manual: "Sub Receiver Band Independence "If CONFIG:VFO IND is set to YES, you can set the sub receiver to a different band from main. Hold BSET, then tap BAND up/down to select the sub receiver’s band. If you only use band- independence for the sub occasionally, you may want to assign VFO IND to a programmable function switch (pg. 21). "If the two receivers are sharing the main antenna path, putting the sub receiver on a higher-frequency band than main may result in signal loss in the sub. This is due to sharing of the main receiver’s low-pass filters. If you select an incompatible band combination, the K3 briefly displays USE AUX as a warning. To avoid sub receiver signal loss, use the sub’s AUX input." With SUB active, hold down RX ANT to toggle the Sub RX antenna between MAIN and AUX. I understand that the Sub receiver's audio is fed to the other stereo channel but is that true for the Line Out port? Can the Sub-Receiver feed audio via the USB CODAC? Yes. When SUB is enabled, SUB audio should be fed to the Right audio channel of both LINE OUT and the USB Audio CODEC. 73, Bob, N6TV ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
