[Elecraft] Independent Bands (F/W Vers. 3.03)

RX ANT is common to both the main and sub receivers. To use it with the 
sub receiver, first turn on RX ANT (outside of BSET). This selects RX 
ANT for the main receiver. Then go into BSET and tap ANT until you see 
MAIN -- that allows the sub receiver to share the MAIN antenna, in this 
case RX ANT.

If you want to use RX ANT *only* with the sub receiver, while main is 
using ANT 1 or 2, do this:

1. Connect your receive antenna to both RX ANT IN and the sub 
receiver's AUX RF BNC jack (under ANT 2) using a 'Y' cable.

2. Select AUX for the sub receiver (BSET, tap ANT until you see AUX).

3. Make sure RX ANT is *not* selected in this case; it simply won't be 
connected.
