Great, Jim. It also turns out there's a way to toggle between two or
more macros on a single PFx switch. Mark Goldberg thought of this.
Here's his example that rotates through four macros on PF1 using self-
modifying setups:
I used self modifying code. Each macro assigns a different macro to
PF1 at the end, so I can use PF1 and it cycles between
four functions:
RAGCHEW TE
+06+06+00-06+00+04+08+12;MN110;SWT27;DELAY;SWH18;DELAY;MN255;
DX TE
+00+00+00-06+00+04+08+12;MN110;SWT20;DELAY;SWH18;DELAY;MN255;
VERY DX
TE-06-06+00-06+00+04+08+12;MN110;SWT28;DELAY;SWH18;DELAY;MN255;
FLAT TE
+00+00+00+00+00+00+00+00;MN110;SWT19;DELAY;SWH18;DELAY;MN255;
The MN110 selects the MACRO x menu.
The SWTXX selects a number for the macro to be assigned.It simulates
a button press of the 1, 2, 3 or 4 keys.
The SWH18 assigns it to PF1. It simulates a button hold of the PF1
key.
The MN255 exits the menu
Seems to work. The delays may not be necessary but it shows the
macro name for a while.
This should work on the KX3 or K3, and you could use the technique to
do both a special SPLIT on and return-to-normal macro on just PF1 (or
PF2).

Thanks to Wayne's pointing to the proper Dual Watch Command SB1 for
on and SB0 for off, I've got a working set of Macros assigned to PF1
and PF2 to effectively turn split on, set the B VFO up 2 KHz, Turn
on Dual Watch so I can hear the pile (must use stereo headphones or
plug in a set of stereo speakers) and make sure RIT and XIT are both
off.
The VFO B knob will tune the second receive frequency.
I set PF1 to turn it on and PF2 to turn it off. The 2 macros tested
functional on the TX5K pileup on 20 meters a few minutes ago. Use
the LATEST KX3 Utility to send these to the KX3.

A>B;A>B; (Tap A>B twice to make sure A and B are set to the same
frequency and mode to start out with) SET TRANSMIT TO VFO B;MOVE VFO
B FREQUENCY UP 2 KHZ;TURN DUAL WATCH ON;TURN RIT OFF;TURN XIT OFF;
SWT25;SWT25;FT1;UPB5;SB1;RT0;XT0; (Assign this macro to PF1
according to the instructions in the KX3 manual)
Restore everything to what it was before, turning Dual Watch off,
setting TX back to the A VFO and again make sure RIT and XIT are
off. This last may not be necessary but better safe than sorry.
SWT25;SWT25;FT0;SB0;RT0;XT0; (Assign this one to PF2)
Remember the semicolons after each command or it won't work.
