Another followup to "Weird happening"

Jim Sheldon
The problem I reported IS global.  It occurs on all bands.  With the P3 SVGA's data display enabled, it seems to inhibit the K3 from actually entering SPLIT mode even though the "SPLIT" indicator shows in the K3's LCD display.  I've confirmed by measuring the K3's output with a frequency counter that even though SPLIT is showing, the K3 is still transmitting on VFO A's frequency.  The VFO B does not change to RED .  The VFO B frequency DOES read the frequency it's set at and the purple cursor moves properly as you change the VFO B frequency.

FW in use in the K3 is 4.51 and in the P3, Beta 01.17 as reported by both devices.

The temporary solution to the problem is to disable the data display before entering SPLIT mode.  It appears that it WILL remain in SPLIT when you re-enable the data display .
