Chris,

Which filters are enabled for what modes?  You can check with K3 Utility.
It would simplify things a bit if you moved the SUB RX filter by one 
slot (leaving FL1 empty).
Then change the filter configuration to match using either K3 Utility or 
by hand in the menu.

The thing that is really important is that you enable the filters for 
the intended modes.

The display of FL1-FL5 normally refers to the main RX.  Use BSET to 
display the filter for the subRX.
