[Elecraft] [K3] Scan mode question/suggestion concerning the KRX3

[dj7mgq at muenchen-mail.de]

Hi,

I'm at work right now and have a spare moment, which has allowed me to  
think about the ARRL 10M Contest coming up in December. With the lack  
of sun spots these days, the contest will likely be a VHF affair,  
which led to the thought that one could call CQ on one frequency and  
scan the band at the same time.

I don't have the manual here, so can't check what it has to say. So I  
ask, has anyone tried to use the the KRX3 in scan mode while calling  
CQ on a run frequency?

I would assume that both receivers are sharing the same antenna, which  
means either the KRX3 scan needs to pause and/or be muted during the  
TX phases.

I do not think that the firmware allows this at present. Could this be  
an idea for Wayne's (very long) ToDo list or is the idea too silly?
