While the KPA500 is rated at 500W I believe that in practice it can

Thanks Wayne.
I had been using the conventional split mode when it occurred to me, why am
I not using what you dub implied split? I've been doing that since and
thought I would bring it up to the group since it has little press.
I acknowledge your reference to the owner's manual, but frankly
Useful analysis, Rich. I agree this might cause some confusion.
Here's a simpler variation. Suppose we give operators the option of briefly
flashing the entire transmit VFO frequency off/on once each time you start
keying? This would duplicate the intent of the TX arrow, which points to
either
Hank,
Is the adapter you have the Kenwood adapter? Red band?
When you talk into the microphone, do you see 5 to 7 bars on the ALC
meter? If not, adjust the Mic Gain on the K3.
That should take care of the microphone end of it.
The headphones are a different consideration from the

Truthfully I have yet to really look at Sat Seriously and the last I really

If it's an option, OK, but I am convinced that if an op misses the existing two
indicators on the LCD display, and the Δf yellow LED, then more indicators
aren't gonna help. And I am unanimous in my opinion.
I'd much rather see the effort go into separating VOX for data from VOX for SSB.

too easy to unknowingly have the rig drop out of
SPLIT
I'm curious about this, how does the K3 drop out of SPLIT?
The only way I know to get into and out of split is to hold the AB
button. Is there some other front panel way? Is there a firmware bug
that occasionally causes the K3 to
Providing an optional means of reinforcing split/non-split state is
in the tradition of design iteration -- using feedback about real
errors that people make, then minimizing them. That's why we're
having this conversation.
The problem is that you're still trying to reinforce a negative.
