Feature Request: Implement AN$ command for subrx antenna selection

N1EU
This is a straightforward feature request:  implement the $ version of the
AN command so that AN$1; sets subreceiver to Main Ant and AN$2; sets
subreceiver to AUX

Re: Feature Request: Implement AN$ command for subrx antenna selection

Joe Subich, W4TV-4
In reply to this post by N1EU

That would be inconsistent with the use of AN which selects between
transmit antennas in K3/K3S equipped with a KANT3/KANT3A tuner.

The appropriate solution would be an entirely new command (RXA/RXA$)
where RXA0; set the Main RX to Main antenna, RX1; set the Main RX to
the RX Antenna, RXA$0; set the Sub RX to use the currently selected
Main RX antenna and RXA$1; set the Sub RX to use either Aux or the
*unused* (non-transmit) port on the KANT3.

In other words, 0 = RX Ant OFF, 1 = RX Ant on based on the user's
hardware configuration.

73,
