[K3] Aux RF
Locked
 
|
I've got a little LF converter to play with an I thought I'd use it with
the AUX RF input and the SUBRX. I've got a PR6 and beverages connected to the normal RX path and I don't want to mess with that. I seem to remember there was a wiring election when putting in the KAT3. Do I remember that right? Taking one election meant not being able to use the AuxRF. I could be confused... Just thought I'd ask before taking the K3 apart unnecessarily. 73 jim ab3cv ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |

OTOH, I may be remembering something similar in the K2 I previously had. I can't find any such election in the K3 manual or the KAT3 manual.
hmm... jim ab3cv |

Hi Ron
Thanks for the info. I had just discovered it as well in the KRX3 manual. I'll have to fire up a XGen to see which way I connected it when I installed it. 73 jim ab3cv On Sun, Jun 16, 2013 at 6:15 PM, Ron D'Eau Claire <[hidden email]> wrote: > That's right Jim: You can have the subrx use ANT1 or ANT2 out of the KAT3, > whichever is NOT being used for xmit or you can connect the AUX RF input. > > See the KRX3 Installation and Operation manual.

Yay!
XG2 into AuxRF shows it's wired as I suspected. Now to get the converter assembled. More toys... 73 jim ab3cv On Sun, Jun 16, 2013 at 6:31 PM, Jim Miller <[hidden email]> wrote: > Hi Ron > > Thanks for the info.
