Rick,

I am going to go 'out on a limb' and make a wild guess that it did *not* behave that way with the old synth boards. Wayne will likely correct me if I am wrong.

With the old synths in diversity mode, there was one synth driving the main RX and the other driving the subRX. With filters being different (2.8kHz for one and 6kHz the other), each receiver could calculate the filter center and apply a correction to its synthesizer, and all would be 'well'.

With the new synthesizers, in diversity mode, only the synth for the main is used to drive both receivers. This phase locks the two quite nicely, but if the two receivers are using different width filters, the calculation for the filter center cannot be correct for both filter widths.

I get that diversity means identical paths but I do wonder if the freq shift
might be compensated for even when different filters are used for no other
reason than that's all that's available to the K3.  Yes that would mean
diversity is degraded until one reduces BW down to where the filters are
identical.  I suggest that might be better than hearing everything in your
right ear shift suddenly.

It's not a demand. It's only a thought as I thought it worked that way
before I upgraded the Synths.
