K-3 and second reciever

gary hext
This has probably been covered before, what is the best way to connect a
second receiver to a k3 so you can compare them without blowing the front
end out of the 2nd rcvr?

Connect the K3 RX Out to a splitter - connect one output of the
splitter to the second receiver input and the other output of the
splitter back to the K3 RX IN.

I've used off the shelf "2 set VHF/UHF/FM hybrid splitter/combiners"
even at HF with good balance/isolation and no excess splitting loss
for several years.
