[Elecraft] Can main and sub rx frequency be locked together?

2008-03-13 Thread g0afh

Hello

I am looking at building a K3 to use as the IF for my 2m system. At
present I have a modified FT1000MP with the sub rx brought out to a
separate connector. This allows me to listen to the main antenna in one
ear and a second antenna (usually mounted at 90 degrees to the main
antenna) in the other ear. With the FT1000 the only way to make the two
receivers track is to hold the lock button whilst tuning the main VFO
which requires two hands.

Can the main and sub receivers on the K3 be made to track each other,
i.e tune both receivers from one VFO?

When the sub-rx is installed, it will be controlled by VFO B. The 
latest firmware release notes state that  VFO A  B can be locked together.

A HOLD of the SUB button LINKS the two VFOs.  Another HOLD unlinks them.
