How to Get Dual RX Working in K3 configuration
« on: 2015-03-13, 11:39:01 »
I bought the "K3 Twin Stereo version" and have stereo cables on all audio connections in a K3/Mini to K3 Twin setup. The Control RRC label on the bottom has the S.

With the Dual RX setting OFF, if I turn the sub RX on I hear the audio mixed into both L and R audio channels.

When I turn the Dual RX setting ON, I hear the same thing - I do not hear the main in my left ear and the sub in my right ear.

Is there something else I need to do, other than changing that one setting?

There is only one setting in the RRC concering this and it's the "Dual-RX" switch, but the K3 has to be setup correct to produce separate speaker audio for the main and sub receiver.

Hi, Mike - bingo! Since I never had speakers connected when the K3 was local, I did not have the SPKRS setting to 2 for stereo. Turn that on in the CONFIG menu and dual RX works just like locally.

Thanks, John K3TN

Now, if I could just get the N1MM SSB PTT thing to work over RemoteRig...

Hi,

Need advise on settings. Recently purchased K3/0-Mini with cables. I believe I have old MKII.

Name   Value

Version   4

Software   2.90
Bootloader   <= 1.7

I can't make MIX of Main and SUB channels in my Head Phones. My understanding that with Dual RX option I will have L-R channels on MAIN and SUB. But I hope that with current hardware I can do both receivers in both headphones mixed. Tried L-MIX-R setting in K3 AB-AB but still getting only MAIN receiver. What I am missing?

Hi

Yes dual rx was introduced in version 5, if you have dual RX support a row with the text "Audio dual RX = Yes/No" shows up in the Radio-RRC.
Default settings is No to save bandwidth.

Yes if you have dual RX you can get the recievers separated, one to each ear

I understand this. Thank you!

My question if I can get audio from both channels mixed and delivered as mono? Currently I can't get SUB audio in any way. Can I achive it and what settings of K3 to check?

You set "SPKRS=1" in the K3 if you don't have a dual-channel RRC.

Mitch! Thank you! You always help a lot.

At my case that was my fault. Didn't pay attention and I hade diversity active with no second antenna connected. Thank you for support! Just in case ordered newer interfaces.
