Hi, I am not sure exactly what you are trying to accomplish here, but I'll hop in with a response anyway. Connecting the IF out to another receiver, SDR or not, will bypass *all* filtering in the K3 except the RF filter, which is several 100 kHz wide. Useful for many things including spectrum displays and 2nd receivers. Many people do this.
Short of that, you are stuck with the K3's audio output which goes through an audio *lowpass* filter around 4.5kHz if I remember correctly but there is absolutely no useful energy above this frequency, just aliasing artifacts that you definitely don't want. So maybe you can give some more details on what you want to achieve. AB2TC - Knut PS. Using two different ways to read your posting (MARC and Nabble), both render your apostrophes as K3'. 39 is the correct ACII code for an apostrophe ('). How did you submit your posting and maybe some expert can offer some advice on why this is such a prevalent problem on the reflector and what to do to avoid them?
