[Elecraft] [K3] RX Gain Calibration

[Don Wilhelm]

Travis,

The KX3 is a direct to baseband receiver with the DSP being done at 
baseband (or if RX shift is on at 8 kHz.) while the K3 downconverts to 
the 8 MHz IF before digitizing and sending the data to the DSP.

So the two receiver architectures are different.
