The CPU between my ears is what the L vs R phase difference processes in Diversity mode. I can get a somewhat similar affect using AFX (or the equivalent with a Heil headset that has a phase reversal switch) but significantly without the benefit of the phase difference of the received signal from two different antennas in Diversity RX.
I never use LINK. When my K3 is in LINK mode, I stare at the front panel until I realize it's operator error. I’ve seen this all to often when a DXpedition using a K3 thinks he’s split but is actually working guys on his TX frequency. An unfortunate bonanza for the all to eager lid police.
