Like Don, N5LZ, I've been playing in the K1N 15M pileup. However, I don't have a KRX3, so I'm using the REV button to listen to the pileup. My user interface problem comes from having the tuning knob for VFO B switch from the medium size knob to the big knob when I press REV.

I have the little knob -- RIT/XIT -- set for fast tuning, so I have 3 tuning knobs, not counting the QSY knob/button on the P3.

Since I'm running with VFO A locked, to avoid losing K1N by brushing a tuning knob, there is really only one VFO that can be tuned. However the cognitive load of switching tuning knobs when I press REV is a bit more than my feeble brain can handle.

Does anyone have a work around, or should I ask Elecraft to change the tuning implementation in some way. One way that might work is to always have the big knob tune VFO A and the medium tune VFO B, even if REV is being held. Another would be to have the fact that VFO A is locked change all three knobs tune VFO B, which would allow high-speed tuning.

I guess I have to up the priority of the KRX3, But I also need the KAT3 and the KDVR3 and a bunch of other stuff that's better to put in first. HIHI What's a poor ham to do?
