K3: Sub receiver question

[David Pratt]

I am using the internal K144XV 2-metre transverter at VFO B and an
external XV50 (modified for 4 metres) at VFO A.

Switching in the SUB I can hear VFO A (4 metres) okay but, although I
can hear the K144XV noise level when advancing the SUB RF & AF gain
controls, I do not hear any signals. I do have a 2 metre antenna in the
ANT3 socket.

Am I doing something wrong ?  I would have expected to be able to
receive 2 metres and 4 metres at the same time.

Hi David,

in standard configuration you can only use one transverter at a time, no
matter if internal or external (the internal K144XV is switched from the
same XV3A board as the external transverters).
