Flex 1500 second K3 Receiver

John Seney
I have both radios and love them. Is there software that will make either radio track the other? I also have the P3 and am very impressed. Great engineering!

Re: Flex 1500 second K3 Receiver

Guy, K2AV
If you are talking about diversity receive, two receivers must use the SAME
source for all the generated conversion frequencies, in order to have them
BOTH locked at the same frequency and phase. Although it is theoretically
possible to phase lock a Flex and a K3 by some device, equipment makers have
zero financial incentive to spend development dollars on something that
might service customers who can be counted on the fingers of one hand.  Even
less incentive than none if that something steers customers to another
brand.

K3/KRX3 is the best AND cheapest diversity ever put down for hams.  I've
used it and the results are stunning if you have the ANTENNAS for RX
diversity.  It's like the integration between the K3 and P3.  The
development and hard work to debug their very complex interaction and make
them work together is paid for by BUYING them together.

73, Guy.

That feature is available in CI-V Commander, part of the DXLab Suite
which includes DXKeeper (logging package) and SpotCollector (DX
alerting software).
