Chris,

The K2 is operating properly - apparently Logger 32 programmers wanted Split
to be cancelled or they would not have sent that string of commands.
The KIO2 Programmers Reference clearly indicates that the 'FR' command
always cancels Split mode.

To work effectively with a program in Split mode, the program must be aware
of which VFO you are using for transmit and which for receive.  My guess is
that Logger 32 did not want to deal with that potential for confusion
because the transmit VFO can be quickly changed by a tap of the front panel
button or by a KIO2 command - many things could easily get mixed up.

73,
Don W3FPR
