[Elecraft] K3 and MFJ 1026 hookup

[Vic K2VCO]

The KXV3 has an RX IN and RX OUT connector. When the K3's RX ANT button is pushed, the
line from the K3's t/r switch to the receiver input is connected to the RX OUT connector,
and the RX IN connector goes to the the receiver input.

Therefore, you connect a separate noise antenna to the canceler noise antenna input, the
canceler's 'transceiver' connector to the KXV3 RX IN connector, and the canceler's
'antenna' connector to the KXV3 RX OUT connector.

The result is to pass the already switched receiver input (which ultimately goes to the
main antenna) through the canceler into the receiver. You must push the RX ANT button on 
the K3 for this to work.
