Now that I am totally doing so2r K3, I have reasons to use the second antenna port available for k3/K3s. I understand from the K3s manual that the second port works off the internal tuner module. If I understand correctly, you can bypass the tuner and then select either of the two antenna ports, OR select the tuner for either antenna port. Is this correct?
I have an old MP that I press into service just to have a radio with a second port for contest-specific but misc. antennas. An MP, modified like mine, is good but of course it is not a K3. Actually, dynamic range is acceptable, at least in rural Idaho, but TX phase noise is noticeable in so2r.
Due to my habit of using so2r K3 I may purchase the tuner just to get access to that second port--so long as I am not forced to use the tuner on either port. Wouldn't it be nice to have a module that allows access to the second port without purchasing the internal tuner?
I need access to both ports without the tuner, i.e., the tuner is bypassed on either port. I think this is want the manual is saying but I want to be certain.
