Hi Jack: Page 16 of the KBPF3A manual says under the heading "Enable the KBPF3A Module":
"Enable the KBPF3A for either the main or sub receiver using the CONFIG menu as described in the Owner's Manual. The KBPF3A will not operate until this is done!" Perhaps I should have repeated the whole procedure in the KPBP3A manual. I think you will get a LOT of agreement that installing the KRX3 module is one of the most complex bits of assembly of the K3S. We've made many "tweaks" to the procedure in the attempt to make it easier, but it is still not simple. 73, Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of wa9fvp Sent: Saturday, April 15, 2017 1:27 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] Sub Receiver & KBPF3 I just installed the Sub receiver and the KBPF3A in my K3S. I have one complaint and one concern. First the activation of the KBPF3A is very vague. It's mentioned in the users manual on page 60 (the configuration menu) but there's nothing that says, while in (CONFIG:KBFP3) that you have to press [SUB] and then select "nor". I double checked the installation manual for the sub receiver and the KBFP3A but there was nothing about activating the General Coverage filters. My concern is; I consider myself as an experienced kit builder but for me, it was a bit difficult installing the Sub-Receiver. The TMP cables were in the way and sub-receiver box was a bit difficult getting the SUBIN and SUBOUT boards to align and mate properly. Someone who is new to kit building would have a more difficult time. The sub-receiver is working great and the one thing I like about it is; it's a clone of the main receiver with FM, AM, 2.8, 400 and 250Hz filters. I wonder how the sub-receiver would stack-up on Sherwood Engineering's test data.
