Hi Greg, you just made my day. I have warned many owners about this problem but in the meantime I must have forgotten about the sub RX antenna selection issue. As I have not operated on 12/10 since installing the sub RX it was an easy oversight. Many thanks, all is fine now!

With the sub rx on, HOLD the RX ANT button. This toggles between sharing the antenna with the main RX and the AUX position, which is either the unsued KAT3 antenna or the AUX RF BNC connection...depending how you installed the KRX3. The K3 remembers these selections by band. ------------------------- 73, Greg - AB7R Whidbey Island WA NA-065 On Wed Jun 3 11:07 , "ON4WIX" sent: >Hi group, > >Running K3 S/N 0192 here.
