In the past we’ve had customers turn on VFO LNK because they thought they 
needed to use this in conjunction with diversity mode. Since VFO LNK was rarely 
used intentionally, we decided to just turn it off when coming out of diversity 
mode, since on average it was probably turned on unnecessarily. 

If you use linking a lot, you might consider using a programmable function 
switch to turn it on/off quickly. You can even set up a macro (using K3 
Utility) to do several operations at once, e.g. turn on diversity, turn on 
linking, set VFO B = VFO A, select an antenna, turn the preamp on, etc. Macros 
can be very long.
