[Elecraft] Using external SDR and a K3 as antenna splitter

A few years ago someone posted a method of using a splitter, and the 
External Antenna jacks to feed an external SDR with the direct antenna, 
not a IF, but a wideband signal from the primary antenna...

I think it was something along the lines of add a splitter, between the 
RX Antenna in/out, and then picking off the antenna feed to the SDR from 
an output of the splitter...   Does this make sense?

Is there a high level block diagram showing the antenna pathing for a 
K3, with the ATU installed, and how the front panel switch labeled RX 
ANT controls the signal path?
