Selecting Filters in KRX3

I don't think I asked the right question on my last KRX3 inquiry. I would like to know how to change the roofing filters in the KRX3 using the WIDTH control while receiving. It seems the KRX3 roofing filters are selected automatically depending on the settings in the main receiver. I would like to be able to manually select the different roofing filters while receiving on the KRX3. Can someone enlighten me on how this is done? Roy Morris W4WFB

You can do that by enabling *ONLY* the KRX3 filter you want...either using BSET for the K3 only or using Filter Config for Sub RX in the K3 Utility. It's awkward no matter how you do it. I don't believe most users would see the need to do this other than for experimentation purposes.

Roy,

According to the manual, the XFIL button will switch between filters.
Try BSET and then XFIL.
I am not certain that is currently implemented in the firmware, but it
is worth a try.
I cannot try it because I have only one filter and do not have the KRX3.

Yes, that is exactly how it works.
Filters of the SUB-RX are changed by XFIL or WIDTH
after selecting BSET.

It doesn't on mine. With B Set selected XFIL steps through the filters in
the main rx.

Re: Selecting Filters in KRX3

On K3 #202 with latest firmware and the KRX3, turning the SUB ON,
enabling BSET, tapping XFIL cycles through the three filters that I have
on the SubRX... NOT the main board filters.

Re: Selecting Filters in KRX3

You're right Ken. I had missed out the step of turning the Sub on before I
tried it!
