Re: [Elecraft] P3 SVGA in Split
I confirmed the error. It's on the bug list, thanks. Alan N1AL On 02/08/2015 07:26 AM, Mike K2MK wrote: Hi Tighe, I was able to repeatedly duplicate what you described. I think you found a bug.

[Elecraft] P3 SVGA in Split
Just noticed something odd with the latest P3 SVGA code (1.35/1.22). Am split on 80m. Held the P3 button for "Center" and rotated the knob so VFO A was closer to the left side of the screen then tapped the button again. All was fine until I tapped Spot on the K3. Then the VFO A marker on the SVGA moved to the center frequency, not the VFO A freq. The P3 is still displaying correctly. Toggling FixTrack got it back in sync, but it's repeatable.
