Diversity and RX ANT button

VE3WDM
I understand if I am in diversity mode and have my AUX antenna (attic dipole) in use through the BNC jack and hold the RX ANT for longer than 2 seconds I now am using the main antenna for both transmit and receive. If I again hold the RX ANT button does the K3 now revert back to the main for transmit and the dipole for receive?
Sorry for all the KRX3 questions but taking advantage of the holiday to get familiar with the operation rather than during a contest.

  Yes.  When the sub is on a hold of RX ANT toggles between the shared
ANT with the main RX and its AUX setting, in your case that would be
what is connected to the BNC.
