Hi Brian,

The K3's sub receiver is identical to the main receiver. The sub has its own set of ham-band band-pass filters, its own optional KBPF3 option (general-coverage filters), and up to five crystal filters. It also has an identical sub receiver and DSP. It is literally the same as the main receiver in every respect.

If you set CONFIG:VFO IND to YES, you can put the sub receiver on a different band from main, and if you're using stereo headphones or sub receiver, you can pan main/sub audio left/right as desired using the MIX menu entry.

73,
Wayne
