Diversity Receive setup??

David H Weiss
Hi All:

I have a BOG loop setup with 30 Feet per side of 50 OHM RG213 (4 Sided)
into a 2 to 5 transformer. I have fed this signal into my K3 with KRX3 set
to ANT=BNC and ANT1 RX PRE indications on the front Panel and DIVERSITY
RECEIVE as well. I have selected a Broadcast Radio station WOR 710 ( About
100 Miles from my QTH)* and I hear it clearly in my left ear.*  My
understanding is that with Diversity receive engaged I should hear the sub
receiver in my right ear; I do not. The AF control for the main receiver
adjusts audio, the SUB receiver AF control has no effect, and I just hear
static.  I have connected the MAIN antenna to ANT 1 with no difference.
The selections of the RX ant button change nothing.

What am I doing wrong? Help would be appreciated..
