[Elecraft] [K3] IF output

[Alan Bloom]

You should hear whatever signals the K3 is tuned to.  I'm assuming you
are connected to the IF OUT jack of the KXV3 or KXV3A.

If you haven't done the IF output mod:

then the signal level will be lower than at the K3 antenna connector.
But with the K3 preamp on, the difference is small.  If you can clearly
hear something on the K3, then you should be able to hear it on the K2.
