KX3 2m module

1lasportsman 1lasportsman
I installed a 2m   for the KX3  and it all appeared to set up great.

The only problem is it will not select the 2 meter antenna (antenna 2).

do I need to somehow tell radio that 2 meters is on antenna 2 .

I have read the manual and no where can I find This.

Asking before opening radio up again

Bill,

The 2m module can ONLY use ant2 and should automatically select it as
soon as you switch to the 2m band on the KX3.

Also, this should not be confused with ANT2 which is only available if
you have a KXPA-100 connected.
