The second receiver IF really isn't showing up on the P3, you are only seeing the IF from the main receiver. However you do get to see some very nice visual effects on top of that IF display. VFO-B will show up in magenta and will be the approximate width of the IF filter selected. If you have SUB-rx enabled, then it is controlled by VFO b, and its filter width will establish the width of the magenta display. While It is colored magenta, it will turn red if you have SPLIT on (because you are going to transmit on that VFO B setting).
Heaven help you if you are working DX in split and don't see red -- the "UP Police" will be on you in a blink of an eye! 73, Bob, WB4SON On Fri, Apr 4, 2014 at 3:25 PM, ANDY NEHAN <andy.ne...@btinternet.com>wrote: > Just got the Sub RX and I must say it looks tasty.
