Ok. I'm installing the rx in my k3.  But I'm not sure how to wire it for connection to a antenna. It will be uses for split operation dxing. Any suggestions will be appreciated   Wd8z. Doug

What is your antenna arrangement?  If you have ‘REC” antenna(s) you might go one way, if you only have one antenna, just use the Main antenna.

Doug,

How you wire the KRX3 AUX ant will depend on how you plan to use your
antennas with it.

Normally, the main RX and the sub RX will share the same antenna through
a 3 dB splitter.  You don't have to do anything special to share your
single antenna.

However, if you want to use a different antenna on the subRX (necessary
for diversity reception), you have 2 choices.
1) If you have 2 antennas (both capable of transmit), connect the TMP
cable to the KAT3 and when you select the AUX antenna for the subRX, it
will use the non-transmit antenna.
2) If you have receiving only antenna(s), you would want to install the
TMP cable from the KRX3 AUX jack to the BNC connector.  Connect the RX
antenna to that BNC jack and select AUX for the subRX.

One of the really nice  features of the book by Fred Cady, KE7X, on the
K3/K3S is that he has diagrams showing every imaginable setup of TX and
RX antennas with/without the KRX3.

The book is available at
<http://www.lulu.com/shop/fred-cady-ke7x/the-elecraft-k3s-and-p3-pdf-version/ebook/product-22507167.html>
as a PDF, and Elecraft
<http://www.elecraft.com/elecraft_prod_list.htm#k3>
has it as a paperback as well.

It is in my opinion one of the best K3 accessories you can get!
