K3 Auto Tuner

[Gary Gregory-3]

Hi,

Does anyone know if there are any future enhancements on the "the list" to
have the K3 auto-tuner work on receive?

I had this functionality on a previous rig and it would be a nice feature to
have again.

I don't want to "add" to any list, this is just a question. I feel that
Aptos have enough on their plate at the moment and there are other projects
yet to be done that are currently on hold till the list is reduced on the
K3.

It already works on receive. Its in-line for both TX and RX. If you have
tuned it up for a band it will be beneficial in RX too.

OF course, if you wish to tune it outside the Ham bands yo will need to
adjust it in manual mode via the menu.

Eric,

When the tuner is in bypass mode and the rig is out of an amateur band does the
previous tuner setting have any effect on the received signal?

When I QSX SW bands I do it with an 80m loop connected to the ANT port.  It
works great!

Tom
