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

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. 73, Ken K3IU g0afh wrote: Hello I am looking at building a K3 to use as the IF for my 2m system.

A HOLD of the SUB button LINKS the two VFOs. Another HOLD unlinks them. - 73, Greg - AB7R Whidbey Island WA NA-065 K3#0009 and 0319 On Thu Mar 13 7:26 , Ken Wagner sent: When the sub-rx is installed, it will be controlled by VFO B.
