[Elecraft] Subreceiver

[K2MK]

Hi Bill:

You have to re-read Ruben's quote. He wants it for his second K3 that does 
NOT include the RX input which means he does NOT have a KXV3 board. If you 
take the KXV3 out of the equation his request makes perfect sense.

TNX a lot to all for your answer.
Main use of it is 160m with 2 beverage and one K3 with second receiver
and without RX Input.
With this... we want listen the beverage conected to aux input and tx on
  the 160m vertical.
Problem this evening was that we only could listen the second receiver
in the right side.
We will have to use the hardware solution.


I'm still not 100% sure what you are attempting to do but there may be a way
without an external splitter.

1.  Connect your Beverage to RX ANT.
2.  HOLD RX ANT to toggle Sub to MAIN.
3.  You will TX on ANT1 and both RXs will use your Beverage on RX ANT via 
the
internal splitter inside the K3.
4.  If you want the RX ANT on both ears, go into DIVERSTY and SPLIT.  You 
will
TX on the VFO frequency B and RX (both receivers) on VFO frequency A.

I use an external splitter so I can feed my Beverage to RX ANT AND AUX RF.
Then I can choose both RXs on the Beverage, both RXs on the TX antenna or 
one
on each in DIVERSTY.  Here's a previous summary:

Although a Magic-T splitter is preferred, you could also use a simple T if 
you
have connected AUX RF to your KRX3.
