So, how was diversity on the K3? I'll bet lots of folks would like
to know!
Worked great, Dean. Last week, with help from K6IAM, Software
version 2.67 was loaded into my K3s. This enabled two features that
made DIVERSITY a joy to use:
1. One push & hold keystroke to enable Diversity mode (no menu work
needed) - locks both receivers to same freq., connects subRX to the
AUX input (beverage).
2. Config menu selection to make the main RX AF gain the volume
control, and SUB AF gain a balance or fader between the two receivers.
My hand was on that 'balance' knob on most QSOs to optimize the
perceived S/N. Probably would have missed a few weak EUs or JAs
without Diversity.
This feature would be useful on any band where you have two
antennas, for me it's a must for 160m.
