Rick,

Good input on the RIT/XIT/CLR info. I may have had the XIT on as I find in 
large pileups it pays to be offset a little. I will check that to see if it had 
an impact on going SPLIT when I selected a call in the N1MM+ Bandmap.

73,

I think what counts is not the way the target station is operating but rather 
the way the spotter station is operating. If the spotter had Split engaged, for 
example to dither its calling frequency in order to stand out in the pileup, 
then the spot may specify split and cause your symptom, even though the DX 
station is operating simplex on a single freq. This won't happen all the time - 
it's a complex interaction among the spotter's rig, operating mode, logging 
software, Telnet interface, and your Telnet interface, rig, logging software, 
and settings. I don't think there is anything you can do about it except be 
aware. (Or maybe you can convince all the hams in the contest to use 
RIT/XIT/CLAR instead of Split when calling a simplex pileup? Good luck! And 
RIT/XIT/CLAR can provoke some frequency anomalies of their own.) 

 

73,

Hi Ted,
All of the stations that I clicked on the bandmap were operating
transceiver. After a while I was paying more attention to the issue. I think
I only worked one station that was split.
I had never seen this happen before. For ARRL SSB will swap K3's to see if
the problem is still there.

Yes, I had tried the example below and I go the same result.

Tony,

It sounds like the software is operating correctly.

On the spots that you clicked on and the K3 went into Split mode, were the
spotted stations actually operating split?

This can also happen if the spotting station is in split mode when the spot
is sent to packet.  You can prove this to yourself.  Type a call into the
call sign field of the Entry window.  Put the K3 in split mode with the sub
vfo a kHz or two away. Now just tune the main vfo away and watch the
self-spot go into the bandmap.   Take the K3 out of split mode.  Use Ctrl+Up
or Dn  arrow and jump back to that spot.  The K3 will go back into Split
mode with the same offset as when you spotted it.

Similarly, if the radio is in the split mode and you click on a non-split
spot, it will cancel the split on the radio.

HTH.

73, Ted W4NZ

Had a weird problem that I had not seen before this past weekend Was using
the K3 with N1MM+. About a quarter of the time when I clicked on a callout
in the N1MM+ Bandmap the K3 would go into SPLIT mode. Anyone else see
something like this?

Not sure if this is a unique condition I am seeing. The N1MM+ folks say they
have not heard of such an issue.



Tnx for any feedback

N2TK, Tony
