K3 and MixW audio input volume

Peter ZL1PWD
Seasons greetings from ZL,
 
I have just upgraded to the 2nd RX and DVR and now get very little signal showing on the MixW waterfall. Not sure if there is a connection
 
Using the latest FW and Menu item MIC SEL = LINE IN
 
Config Item LIN OUT=3
 
Any thoughts??
 
TIA and 73

Peter,
 
If you are using the SUB and Main RX at the same time on the same antenna you will see a 3 dB drop in signal.  Try increasing your Line Out setting to about 10.

Also Peter, if you have the SUB turned on the Main receiver will be on the
left channel and SUB will be on the right channel. You might want to check
your audio level adjustments on your PC. Maybe the left and right levels are
not the same. I use a CONFIG: LIN OUT setting of "nor 010" but you also have
to consider the setting on your PC line-in. And check the back of the K3 to
be sure the line out plug is actually plugged into the line out jack and not
the headphone or speaker jack.
