Thanks to Iain and the others who responded off the reflector. I plugged in the K3's IF output to the second rig's sub RX input and sure enough heard the same signals. When the Sub-RX was set to 8.215 MHz it appeared that there was about a -1.3 KHz difference between the VFO position that would tune in the signal on the K3 vs via the IF. I imagine this is normal (someone please let me know if it's not).
So it appears that I have properly functioning IF output. I have gone through various troubleshooting approaches with the LP Pan (jumpers, levels, etc.) and it still does not appear to be working -- only noise shows up. I have a softrock which works fine w/ both sound cards. I think I'm approaching the end of the troubleshooting I can do (I don't have a sufficient oscilloscope to test the LP-PAN's oscillator), so if anyone has any suggestions for things to try at this point I'd appreciate the advice. Thanks again! 73, Matt NQ6N On Sun, Mar 4, 2012 at 10:50 AM, iain macdonnell - N6ML <a...@dseven.org>wrote: > Hi Matt, > > If you have another rig that can receive at 8.215Mhz, connect it to > the K3's IF out, and you should hear the same signal that you hear > from the K3. > > 73, > > ~iain / N6ML > > > > On Sun, Mar 4, 2012 at 10:36 AM, Matt Murphy <m...@nq6n.com> wrote: > > I'm wondering if anyone could advise on the best way to verify that the > > K3's IF output is present and working properly.
