[Elecraft] K3 - panadapter or subreceiver

[Phillip Shepard]

My understanding is that diversity receive works best with matched receiver
topologies.  Should the subRx have the same filter array as the main Rx
(bandwidths and types)?  If the main Rx has 8-pole 2.8, 1.8 and 0.4 kHz
filters, should the subRx mimic that?  Thank you for the enlightenment.

Phil, NS7P

And for most operations 8 pole filters are not required.

Hi Mike,

You are right! I should have read the manual before posting ;-)

It is important to consider the filters needed for the subRX - 8-pole
filters are not inexpensive.

I hope to have both someday, but for now am very happy with my P3 and KPA500
(and KAT500 on order...).
