> I hope Elecraft eventually looks into diversity receive. This capability is in the initial release, using the KRX3 and KAT3. The KAT3 provides a second SO239 antenna connector and then the ANT button on the front panel allow the operator to select ANT1 or ANT2. The KRX3 can be configured in one of two states. The first state uses the same receive antenna as chosen by the main receiver, i.e., ANT1, ANT2 or RX ANT (if there is a KXV3 installed). The second KRX3 state uses the UNUSED SO239, so if the main RX is set on ANT1, then the KRX3 would use ANT2. This is the basic diversity reception setup with the K3.
With a KXV3, you can also do diversity reception with the main receiver using the RX ANT antenna and the KRX3 using the "other" SO239 ANTn connector that the TX is not using. This allows you to have two receiving antennas for diversity reception and yet a third antenna for transmitting. 73, Ed - W0YK _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
