Totally agree with Guy.
It sometimes seems like those new to Elecraft and the K3 want to change
the rig to act just like the rig they have or had before getting the K3.
I love all the menu suggestions from the new owners. Never mind most

Hi DX chasers
In chasing DX have been caught napping a few times, when I forgot to select
'split' and had to be reminded by someone on the DX freq about the blunder.
I was wondering if there is a way to more clearly show that 'split' is
activated. How about, in addition to the TX arrow

There is already an indicator. It's the yellow delta f light below the
power button. If it's on,
Also, just above the B frequency display, there is a circled indicator
that says SPLT.

There's just got to be some other indication that we're not transmitting on the

Hi DX

There is just so much any manufacturer can do to protect an operator

1). The RIT indicator on the LCD is on. The SPLT indicator is off.
2). The TX arrow on the LCD is pointing to A
3). One of the LEDs above the RIT knob is lit.
4). The

Hi,
I cmpletely agree with K2AV's observations. There is really nothing to be
fixed here. With all the indications of split mode already there, another
blinking LED is not going to make any difference. There is really no excuse
for transmitting on the wrong VFO with the K3. Yes, it happens in
