Morning Elecrafters - Reporting the results of my message yesterday 
asking to borrow a XG2 signal source to test my KX3.   What a great 
group?  I had 5 offers of a loan for either a XG1 or XG2.   Thank you.

In discussing the seemingly dead deft KX3 receiver I tried changing the 
mode from CW to SSB and it started to work normally.  Only indicated 
difference seen was the it changed from FL2 for CW to FL1 for SSB.  
Problem was this KX3 didn't have the optional filter installed.   Phil 
suggested I check the RX Fil configuration setting in the menu.   Doing 
this found it was set to "Auto".  Changing it to "Not Inst"  and the KX3 
receiver started to work normally. Have no idea how the menu item got 
changed.

I'm a very happy camper.   Thanks to all for the help.

Very 73s  Bob  W7AVK
