Data Sub-mode switching on K3

[Dave Barr-2]

Sometimes I want to monitor RTTY while I am operating JT65/9 on my K3
(sn7901) which has the sub-rx.  The only way I have figured out to do
this is to set both vfo A and B with [A>B] to data sub-mode AFSK A (LSB)
for RTTY, and then switch vfo A to DATA A (USB) for JT.  If at anytime I
try to use the [B Set] function, to change band width for example, the
AFSK A (LSB) mode in vfo B changes to DATA A (USB).  If I use the A/B
function both vfos become set to the sub-mode that was originally
selected for vfo A.

Setting split mode this way seems rather cumbersome, just as is the
inability to use [Freq Ent] with [B Set].  Am I missing something, or is
this just the way things are, and something to suggest for future software.

Dave, K2YG

Dave,

By any chance do you have the VFOs set to LINK?
