[Elecraft] [K3] Question about APF with Diversity Rx enabled

2010-12-31 Thread Bill Tippett
VE3MV:

 > As I understand it, (at a high level) with Diversity turned on, 
both the MainRx
and SubRx are turned on, use the same bandwidth roofing filters and the main
VFO A provides the same LO signal for both receivers resulting in audio from
the MainRx going to the left ear and the SubRx audio going to the right ear.
If the APF is now turned on, does the DSP1 for the MainRx and DSP2 for the
SubRx now apply that filter functionality to the two separate Main and SubRx
audio signals so that turning the shift knob actually tunes the peak 
in both of
the separate audio streams together?

Yes, but both VFOs share the VCO reference (i.e. not VFO A driving 
VFO B).  Both VFOs are always tuned together by the DSPs and MCU when 
in diversity mode.

[Elecraft] [K3] Question about APF with Diversity Rx enabled

2010-12-31 Thread Doug Joyce
GA:  Perhaps someone (Wayne or Lyle or ??) could provide some further 
explanation about how the APF is implemented when Diversity RX is turned on.  
As I understand it, (at a high level) with Diversity turned on, both the MainRx 
and SubRx are turned on, use the same bandwidth roofing filters and the main 
VFO A provides the same LO signal for both receivers resulting in audio from 
the MainRx going to the left ear and the SubRx audio going to the right ear.  
If the APF is now turned on, does the DSP1 for the MainRx and DSP2 for the 
SubRx now apply that filter functionality to the two separate Main and SubRx 
audio signals so that turning the shift knob actually tunes the peak in both of 
the separate audio streams together?

I'm just trying to get a better understanding of what's going on in the radio.

Thanks and HNY to all.
