Connect SDR-IQ to the IF Out jack (not the RX Ant) and tune SpectraVue
to 8.125 MHz manually *or* in SV's "ExtRadio Setup" Select the K3 and
uncheck "HF Tracking Mode."
Note: If you want to use the frequency tracking tied to the IF, you
will need some kind of serial splitter to share the K3 serial port.
For more information see the SpectraVue Help file section 4.2, page
59 and page 58 "IF Tracking".

Howdy K3' people:
I have an SDR/IQ. I also have three Elecraft transverters. When I
connect a BNC to the BNC-RX "T" chain, and I tune Spectravue to 28.07
and the 6m xv50 transverter is "on", I am looking at the area around
50.070 .. I can look for beacons and Sporadic-E openings.
Nothing new.
However, the other day, I suspected the xv50 transverter to on the
Fritz. So I switched to the internal 6m Rx/Tx section. Made some
contacts.
So now I want to once again look for 6m Beacons down below 50.080 .
My only option seems to be the IF BNC output.
I connected there and tried to set Spectravue for 8.215; 10.0; 28.0 and
still see nothing from 6m. I even tried to set it at 50.10, to no avail.
So how do yu set it up to watch lower end of 6m on the K3, without
using a transverter?
thanks
