Bill,

It depends on how you have things configured.  It is possible that the 
80 meter LPF is in the path from the sub to the antenna.  That would be 
true if you have the sub set to share main's antenna.  If you have the 
KAT3 installed and have the sub set to use the non-active main antenna, 
then the LC combination in the tuner can suppress the signal.  See page 
37 of the manual.
Furthermore - if you have the PR6 connected between RX ANT out and RX 
ANT in, the PR6 can only be connected to the main RX, not the subRX.  
See page 39 of the manual as well as the antenna routing diagrams on 
pages 41 and 42.

The only way I know of to use the PR6 on the sub without complication is 
to connect the SubRX separate BNC antenna connector inside the K3, set 
the sub to RX ANT and put the PR6 between the sub's BNC RX ANT connector 
and your antenna.

I have neither the subRX nor the PR6 here, so I cannot be entirely 
certain, but what I have said is my impression from looking at the 
antenna connection diagrams.
