Hi Howard: It makes you feel like you're doing something wrong, doesn't it. Make sure nobody else is in the shack.
With my prior radio, an FT1000D, the sub receiver was not quite as good as the main receiver. (Different filters and no audio peak filter). So it was logical to receive with the main and use the sub in split mode to hunt for a good place to transmit. But now with the K3 the sub is exactly the same. So I say, go for it. I have found a few minor negatives to this practice. If I hit a spot off of my logging program, the spot goes to VFO A which might not be what I want. When computer logging, the recorded frequency is from VFO A not B. Direct frequency entry, and a few other features only affect VFO A (at least for now). Also you can't use diversity reception while doing this. You have to be unlinked. I guess we'll soon be requesting that Wayne provide other uses for the SPLIT button. 73, Mike K2MK Howard K2HK Sat, 14 Feb 2009 09:55:53 -0800 I'm sure this is obvious to most but not to me. I am blaming it on separation anxiety since my K3 only recent returned from Aptos. I have the KRX3 installed and work split using the Sub Rx. I lock vfo B on the DX and use vfo to find a tx frequency. When might using the split button be indicated? What are the differences?
