Hi Dave,
This is very embarrassing. I never saw the PDF file among the other
documents that were extracted from the zipped file. It's quite extensive.
Thanks for pointing that out.

Hi John,
What functionality is the external keyboard supposed to provide under the
1.05 SVGA firmware? I haven't seen any posts from anybody indicating that
they are using a keyboard. With every other new feature there are usually
numerous posts describing the great new features.

to help and you might have some damage to the front end of the K3 receiver.

Hi Hank,
No. It would be nice for those that have wide external monitors. Perhaps it
is on the firmware wish list.

I'm sure I could dig out the answer from manual, but please a quick
question:
Can one have different parameters for P3 and SVGA
a narrower filter later. If money is not an issue buy both.
I also have the 1000Hz filter and never find myself operating with a
bandwidth in the 400Hz to 1000Hz range. One day I'll pull it out and sell
it. Had I used my own advice I could have saved some money.

that move could lower the resale value of your K3. More food for thought.

My understanding is that diversity receive works best with matched

topologies. Should the subRx have the same filter array as the main

You could also have the sub set up in diversity mode. In diversity you'll be
listening to VFO A in both ears regardless of what is displayed in VFO B.
The tip off is a blinking decimal point (the right decimal point) in the VFO
A display.

diversity reception. This is where you can listen to your transmit antenna
in one ear and your receive antenna in the other ear. For some this is a
powerful tool for weak signal work.

Hi Chris,
To add to Joe's answer, if the Ultrabeam controller does not an interrupt
circuit built into it you could use the N8LP Tuning Relay.
