K3 - SR2O

[Chris G3SJJ]

I am trying to set up my K3 for FD here in Eu in 10 days time. I have
successfully used SR2O in the past with FT1kMPs but so far not with the
K3. I have a splitter box which takes both Rx audio channels from the
headphone socket and splits to one headset for main rx and another with
sub rx. Neither operator should hear the other rx. This works perfectly
with the FT1kMP but so far I can't get it to work with the K3. Any
suggestions?

Make sure you have that you don't have CONFIG: L--MIX--R set to
something other than "A   b".  Possibilities are A   b,  Ab   b, A
Ab, Ab  Ab.  Also make sure that you have CONFIG: SUB AF set to "nor".

Also it is possible to set L-MIX-R via programming over the serial
line from a program, so it could have been left in this state from
running a logger, etc.

If those are correct, make sure you don't have a wiring error.  The
headphone channels with the above settings are completely separate on
my K3.

73, Guy.

Chris:
You do have Config: L-Mix-R set to A on one side, B on the other?  
(A       b) That should put one rx on the tip, the other on the ring. It
does on mine.

Assuming you have CONFIG:SPKRS = 2 also!

That's it!! I had forgotten about that menu setting. Works properly now.
I can detect some low level crosstalk but I suspect less than the
FT1kMP. Will check with some big sigs in WPX.

Thanks for all the responses.
