[Elecraft] K3 RX Ant question

[Bill VanAlstyne W5WVO]

First, I assume you meant "K3", not "K2" --

I assume what you are doing is just going into the CONFIG menu, finding the 
KBPF3 item, and turning the knob between "NOR" and "NOT INST", and seeing no 
difference. This is normal behavior, because you are not actually changing 
anything.

You have to POWER DOWN the K3 and then power it back on for the change to 
take effect. Tune in a SWBC station on, say, 31 meters, and perform this 
test turning the K3 off between setting changes. You'll see having the KBPF3 
in-circuit makes a difference of several S units.
