HI Wayne
Anyway, a useful indication could be the split (i.e +1.50) offset instead of
the VFO B frequency (user choice based on the DISP status). This is rarely
done by manufacturers (I know the TS-990 which does this) but this is very
useful in practice and avoids mental calculations.

To those of you (W3FPR and N2TK) who did not like my suggestion of having a
new menu choice to make B mode always equal to A mode apparently did not notice
that the other choice you would have is to leave it like it is now. Your choice

Can I plead for flexibility? Everyone seems to want the most efficient
split operation for their particular way of using split, but there are other
requirements as well.
For example, assume a DX station is using a K3 on 40m phone, say at 7055
kHz, and trying to listen both on its own frequenc

If you force the same mode with SPLIT, you will be negating the use of
cross-mode split.
I know standard (same mode) split is much more common, but I believe a
K3 capability for cross-mode split should be available.

I wouldn't say it's all that rare. In a mixed-mode contest it can be
handy to be able to jump between modes and sub-bands just by hitting the
A/B button. If you want to go to a predetermined frequ
Hey, that's cool! Thanks Eric.

I agree with you on this. The way you describe it, That's the way I always

It would be nice if, after pressing split, the vfo's would be on the same
freq and in same mode. This would be a nice short cut.
The purist might add that the CW split would
When an operation advertises its operating frequencies in advance, as
K4M has, it's simple to set up band memories in advance that include
mode, SUB on and selected for TX split up.
Chance favors those who are prepared.
