K3s Low sub receiver volume

Larry W0LRF
There have been a few posts on this subject, but none had answers.

 

Both my main and sub receiver are on the same antenna.

The audio volume from the sub is much lower.

The AF for the main is…… let’s say at 9 o’clock….. to get equal volume level from the sum… Sub AF has to be at 3-4 o’clock.

RF on both are the same.

Any suggestions? Is this normal?

Same matched filters? New or always been that way? Checked internal cables, fitment? Is it possible to adjust eq separate for each receiver?

You may want to check that NR is the same (on or off) for both
receivers.  In my experience you may have NR off for the main and NR on
for the sub.  That will give you a "lower volume" for the sub.  Also,
check the attenuater is the same for both receivers too.
