I must say, push-push-hold is a reflex for me whenever working
split, SSB/RTTY/CW. My only problem is pressing the wrong button
-- V->M instead of A->B. HIHI It overwrites one of the memories.
This error comes from having my computer and P3SVGA screens at
right angles to the K3. Sometimes i'm pushing buttons by feel,
especially if it has gotten dark and I haven't turned on a light.
One question though, does anyone work cross-band split? I heard
a W1AW portable operator enforce his "DX only" by listening for
SSB in the middle of the US CW/data-only portion of the band.
Going cross band might also have obscure uses.

Like yourself, I do quite a bit of DX RTTY operation using split, and to
tell you the truth, I just tried what you are talking about, and you are
right! To me honest with you, I hadn't noticed it before because I have a
nasty habit of "double pushing" the SPLIT button before holding it to engage
split. This relative simple operation of double pushing the SPLIT button
transfers everything from A to B; then pushing the SPLIT button works just
fine.
