[Elecraft] Q about the K3 rear panel
I'm trying to clear up some confusion on my part and maybe I've missed something in the manual. I am looking at a picture of the rear panel of the K3 and I see a sub-panel with rx ant in/out, xvtr in/out and IF out. Are these connectors only available if the KXV3 is ordered? What about if the sub receiver is ordered but no KXV3 will it have the rx in/out? It would be helpful if some of this were made a little more clear in the user manual or web page. What I want is the sub rx and rx in/out, but I don't need the KXV3 because I don't plan to use transverters. I do need to be able to connect a separate receiving antenna to the sub receiver. I also understand that in order to have the IF out connector I would need to order the KXV3? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Q-about-the-K3-rear-panel-tp14577141p14577141.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

It's wrong to think of it only as a Transverter option. Think of it as an RX ANT - IF OUT - Transverter option. 73, Bill W4ZV -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Q-about-the-K3-rear-panel-tp14577141p14577216.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] Q about the K3 rear panel
You can connect the subreceiver to a rx ant via the aux RF jack, without having the KXV3 option.
