That's a good question!
I believe that the sub RX is the first priority. You have to be able to hear
his QSX frequency to know you're transmitting in the right place.
The P3 does help to see the signal of the guy who he answered last transmitting.
I was able to work ZL8X on two bands today by u
I recently made the choice to purchase a P3 rather than a KRX3.
Three factors that were involved in my decision were as follows.
It is the 160m DX season and CQ WW is right around the corner. I didn't
want to take my
station apart even for a day or two to add the second Rx. The P3 was up

ZL8X is running seven (7) stations concurrently. See their website:

I'll confess to not being much of a CW op (only 277 worked) but my recent
experience with entering the realm of either 2nd RX or panadapter usage, I've
gone to the panadapter, and only recently at that.
In my case it's an SDR-IQ running SpectraVue, which interfaces to the K3
flawlessly.

Wow! Where did you find a pileup where only one station thought the DX had
come back to him and was sending a signal report?

I think the KRX3. The P3 is very helpful, but the most of the time it's the
KRX3 that does
it. The P3 shows the pileup, but it's much easier to identify the one that's
working the
DX when you can hear and copy calls, etc.

Hi Johnny,
I think you meant ZL8X. I'm sure glad that they are using a K3 on that
Dxpedition to Kermadec. They must have been using it on 160 Meters this
morning
when I worked them. I was running 1
path, as also occurred for my 160M QSO with Dave,
KH2/N2NL a few weeks ago. Thank you Elecraft!

Hello
Hello Group,
K3 is the main radio in ZLX8. Do you know which version of Firmware they are
using?
Yesterday, I hear ZLX8 at 20 metre 59+. I returned to them with my QRP K3,
also
received 59 signal report. My KPA3 is under repair by Elecraft.
cheers,
Johnny VR2XMC
