Actually that would not work either. The PR6 is turned on by using the RX Ant button while on 6m.
The only way I see to make this work is by having the main vfo on the 6m Freq and the sub on the lower band. I have the pr6 but have yet to hook it up. I will be curious to see other replies.

The low pass filters are selected for the main TX/RX, and any signals at the higher frequency will be attenuated if you are sharing the antenna (or ATU) for the sub with the main. The solution (and what the message is trying to tell you) is to use the AUX RX input to the sub-RX. If you plan operation as you are attempting, I suggest you re-wire your SUB-RX antenna to use the BNC connector rather than the unselected antenna from the KAT3. 73, Don W3FPR Bud Semon N7CW wrote: > I can't figure out how to monitor 6M with the sub-receiver, using my > PR6 and 6M antenna on Ant2 (which requires me to have the RX Ant on) > and tune on 20M with the main receiver.
