Hi Frank, On any given band, both VFOs will normally be either in CW or CW REV. You can observe this by changing from CW to CW REV on VFO A at the radio; VFO B will also switch, if it had been in CW mode. However, you can then set up the filtering differently on the two VFOs (using FW, BW, IS, and other commands).
I just confirmed the behavior of the "MD" command that you observed, and will review it for a future firmware release. I hesitate to change it since a lot of application software expects it to work this way. 73, Wayne N6KR Frank wrote: > Hi all, I have noticed that when I send an MD3; or MD7; command to > my K3 (which sets the VFO A mode to CW or CW REV respectively), the > VFO B filter settings (selected filter, filter shift and width) are > changed to the values that are currently active for VFO A.
