[Elecraft] KBPF3 General Coverage Receiver -- Main or Subreceiver

I would also vote for main as I prefer to tune with the BIG knob.  The Sub
knob is too crowded for my fat fingers and I frequently bump the RIT/XIT
knob causing undesired effects.

Another vote for the main Rx:

I ordered the KBPF3 with my radio in 2010 and installed it in the main Rx.
I am on 600m already so it made sense to me to have it in the main Rx.  I
didn't install one in the KRX3, which I also part of my original order, as I
expected to only use it for diversity reception on eme which does not use
the KPBF3.

Therefore, I will modify my KPBF3 when I order and install the two Synth
boards.  Main purpose for getting the Synth boards is to be able to operate
on 630m (472-479-KHz).  Of course it will help all reception.  I will be
interested to see if this will lower the level I can decode JT65 signals
(typ -28 is lowest).  Sorry, I drifted off topic.
