I'm installing my KRX3 now and trying to figure out which configuration to
install.

After reading the KRX3 manual and the K3 manual and looking at the pictures
on page 40 (K3 manual),

I do have KAT3 and KXV3 installed.

I do have a separate RX antenna for the low bands.

I want to use the SUB-RX on the higher bands together with the main RX with
the same antenna and accept an increase of the NF by 3 dB. 

Do I need the AUX RF BNC installed?

I do not need to hook up the aux cable.  You may wish to do so for future
use.  You might want to listen on a beverage for the lowbands on one
receiver and your tribander on 20m so in that case you would want both.  You
can select which antenna to use in the menu, main or aux.

Hi all,

I've never been able to get my clock to work in the K2 outfitted with the
KDSP unit.

I have changed batteries numerous times and measured the battery when
installed. Unit will set time and appear to keep good time, but next time I
turn unit on I get EE EE EE and am unable to set time.

Any thoughts from this great group of Elecraft users???

Evert,

Yes, I believe using the AUX RF BNC is the preferred solution for your case
