[Elecraft] [K3] Setting Filter Gain in KRX3

[Dick Dievendorff]

You can use the K3 Utility filter configuration tool to verify the filter
settings for both main and sub receiver.  From the K3 Utility's
"Configuration" tab, click "Edit Crystal Filters" and click on the Main /
Sub Receiver radio button at the bottom left of the dialog.

 

The main receiver filter settings are distinct from the sub receiver filter
settings.  Setting the main receiver's filters does not set the
configuration of the sub receiver filters.

 

I loaned my K3 to K7RI to get ready for Sweepstakes or I'd try to describe
how to view and set the sub receiver filter configuration from the K3's
front panel. I believe it can be done, I just can't verify the procedure.

I have installed the KFL3A-500 filter in slot #5 in both receivers.  When I
set main receiver FL5 GN to 6 dB and go to B SET, the gain sounds about the
same in the KRX3 as it does in the main receiver.  Since the dB setting
cannot be seen in B SETdisplay, how do you know the gain settings are the
same?  When the main receiver filter bandwidth, offset and gain are set  in
CONFIG, does the corresponding KRX3 filter automatically get set to the same
parameters regardless of filter slot used?  Maybe all this can be determined
in K3 UTILITY.  Any comments would be appreciated.  Roy Morris  W4WFB
