Hi,
I wonder if the sub receiver antenna is set to RX ANT or something.
Try double-tapping A>B to transfer all VFO settings to VFO B.

OKay, so this really drove me nuts. I have the macro set up to toggle

Check your menu items? Maybe the KRX3 got accidentally shifted to "Not

Precisely or more accurately, accurate!

You can't save the configuration file from one K3 and then load it into
