Thanks Jim!

This split issue has been listed and Wayne is working it.  It's not in the
release that is in testing now but should not be far behind.

You're right about the CAT commands.  The K3 needs to send a different mode
report for FSK and PSK direct modes other than data so that devices like the
MicroKeyers and Navigators as well as digital mode programs know the
difference.  You're dead on though....after the sub receiver is done.

Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Fine/Coarse VFO settings


Eric / Wayne - This may be pilot error on my part as I have only had the
radio a few days but I noted a nuisance issue during the ARRL SSB DX
Contest.  I was operating split vfo on 40M.  Both VFO's were set to fine
tune.  I decided to switch vfo B to coarse so I could qsy rapidly to an
announced qrg frequency above 7125.  I discovered if I set vfo B to coarse
tune that vfo A also switches to coarse tune.



It would be slick if the firmware enabled independent switching of vfo A or
Vfo B to fine/coarse.  That would enable fine tuning for stations on vfo A
while coarse tuning vfo B in split operation.  I realize it is possible to
enter vfo B freq from keypad but that would be awkward and a hassle in an
ssb contest situation on 40M.



I also hope that as soon as the second receiver design issues settle that
Wayne will be able to produce the complete programmers reference manual.  My
Microham Microkeyer has the hiccups with the K3 in some modes.



Thanks for your consideration
