according to my rev D1 K3 manual, pg37
VFO B controls the sub’s frequency, and is also the
TX frequency during SPLIT (see details at right).
and 'right' says
SPLIT Mode with the Sub Receiver
During split (SPLIT), VFO A is the receive
frequency and VFO B the transmit frequency. If the
sub receiver is on, you can listen to both receive
and transmit frequencies, making DXing more
convenient. You can set up the sub receiver’s
filtering independently using BSET.
So I think I can't do it, that is use the large knob to control the
KRX3, thereby making tuning into the DX receive frequency easier.
I don't see how you can do that, but not having the KRX3 installed yet
doesn't help.
(Note to self to promise to install after JOTA).

It's quite easy with the KRX3 ... turn on "sub" to listed to
the DX station and use VFO A/Main for transmit and listening
in the pile.

Yes, I know I can switch A/B, but I want to spot the
frequency and Tx
without having to press a button and delay

Another thing about split operation is that the K3 defaults
to using
VFO B for transmit and A for receive. In the K2 A/B (I
think) reverses
these. This is a bit of a problem if you are using N1MM and
running in
split mode and tuning VFO A around. If you tune more than
300 Hz N1MM
will toggle from Run to S&P mode. The workaround is to either widen
the
CW tolerance (Config -> Other) or turn off the Run/S&P Toggle (Alt-
F11).
(Thanks to K3CT for pointing this out to me.) Not a big
deal but maybe
being able to switch which is the transmit and which is the
receive
VFO
in split mode would be nice.
