I've had absolutely no issues with my P3 and a 2m ssb transceiver just
inches from it. This will doubtless be the exception rather than the
rule. There must be something not quite right somewhere.

Hey Gil,
For WL2K and all data modes, just use Line In and Out to your sound device.
You can key the KX3 via the serial port, using DTR or RTS via the USB-Serial
adapter. Doing this requires a current-limiting resistor in series on the
control line (DTR in my case). I'm using 3.3K for mine,

I also use RMS Express with my KX3 using only a simple transformer/attenuator

On the K3, when listening with the sub receiver on a different band than
what you are transmitting using the Main, is the sub receiver muted?

If you have the computer interface up (KPA Utility), you can switch it on or
off with the computer mouse. Works great. You must have KPA500 mounted under
the operating position.
You may be able to write a macro on the K3 to do the same thing, haven't tried
that.

Hi Stephen,
Try taking the P3 out of fixed tune and using tracking mode. At narrow
spans the SVGA will require more time to sample and process the separate
2048 point FFT. In fixed tune both displays are 'lock stepped' to each
other, while in tracking mode they are not.
