  Luca,

Yes, it is possible to hear the subRX on the opposite antenna that the 
main is listening to.

You must have a TMP cable connected between the KAT3 and the antenna 
input of the subRX - that cable is not installed on factory-built K3s, 
but the extra TMP cable is shipped with the K3.

The antenna that is NOT connected to the Main RX will be heard when the 
AUX ANT is selected for the SubRX.

If the two antennas are not well separated, you may hear the COR in the 
sub being activated during transmit (clicking noise during transmit).

See Figure 4 on page 43 of the manual.

73,
Don W3FPR
