It's likely not a common usage, but mine's parked on 6M with a dedicated 6M
antenna listening for openings.

As Ken's response indicates, the number of uses is probably as varied as
the number of K3S/KRX3 owners. Most people will use the sub RX to listen
to the pile-up when working DX, others will use it in contests to search
for contacts, and others will use it like Ken is doing, to hear openings
on a different band than the operating band. The sub RX definitely makes
the K3 more versatile.

Diversity on 144 MHz HPol and Vpol X-Yagis on EME with two transverters
locked by a common LO and 10 MHz GPS. There's no other rig than can do
this like the K3 with SubRX.

Yes. During 6M E-skip season, my K3 is usually monitoring either 50.125
or 50.276 in the main RX, with the sub-RX in the CW band, and the P3
displaying 50.080 to 50.280. With this setup, I'll quickly see any band
activity. The 50.276 RX will feed WSJT-X. Once short-sequence ISCAT-B
gains more traction, I'll monitor 50.248, the ISCAT-B calling frequency.

On HF, I use the Sub-RX for Diversity reception, and to listen on my TX
frequency when I'm running split.
