[Elecraft] K3 Sub-receiver use

If the P3 gets its signal from the IF out connector on the KXV3 (or 
KXV3A), then it will not work with the subRX; the IF out connection from 
the KXV3 is from the main receiver only. I seem to recall reading posts 
from someone who had done some surgery on his KRX3 in order to create a 
similar IF output from the KRX3 for use with an external panadapter, so 
it's not beyond the realm of possibility, but you may not be able to do 
it with an unmodified K3. I would love to find out that I am wrong on 
this, by the way! At any rate, this is a point worth pursuing directly 
with Elecraft before laying out cash for a KRX3 and P3 with the 
intention of using them together.
