I also like the idea of an initial offset for use with LP-PAN. When turning
on Split, the panadapter would then clearly show both passbands in a
predictable way. With A=B, one is hiding behind the other. With no preset,
one could be off the screen.

For my part I'm contented with the way AB and Split works.
Maybe it's also that I'm used to it this way because all of my previous rigs
worked like this.
I don't see the need to change this. As for the quick split feature, it is
nice to have but I
never used it because a lot of DX-Stations use
I don't want to contradict but tapping AB once already copy frequency AND
mode to VFO B...
Just turned on the radio and tried again to be 100% sure.

This will be possible after I complete work related to the VFO IND

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

when clicking on a DX4WIN spot, I now need to click twice...
once for the freq and a second time if the mode is different
also when split is called for, the vfo b gets it , but the K3 only
flashes split then retains the non split mode.
The ICOM goes to split and gets the vfo freq mode
B-A was broken by the change as well - since it is available only as
a programmable function, the second keypress needed to transfer mode
isn't possible!

What about using a macro that would issue an A/B and a split off. Use
another macro that would issue an A/B and a split on.
