I posed the same question to a couple of current K3 owners and they said NO. You need the KXV3 installed to listen to another antenna. One of them said that the isolation is very poor between ANT1 and ANT2, therefore you need the KXV3. It would be nice to have Elecraft's clarification on this, because the FAQ seems pretty clear and contrary to what other owners have said.
