KRX3 Status Update from Wayne

March 11, 2008

We expect to receive the initial batch (20) of production KRX3 modules 
this week. We'll post a photo as soon as they arrive. Subreceiver 
operating firmware is still in progress, but the basics have now been 
tested successfully on prototypes. I don't anticipate any serious issues 
with the production boards, so we should be able to start ramping up 
production in the next several weeks.

Diversity receive is working (as you may have guessed when the "VFO 
Linking" feature showed up in the latest firmware release.) With 
headphones, it sounds a like an extra-rich version of our "AFX" 
function; but more important, it helps with fading if two different 
antennas are used. I also spent some time operating split -- listening 
to VP6DX in the left headphone channel (main) and the pileup (sub) on 
the right. No need to press REV to check the TX frequency!
