K3 Split Operation

I used to use my A and B VFOs on the Omni VI for switching bands during the Sprint. I could assign VFO

A to 20M and VFO B to 40M on radio 1 and VFO A to 40M and VFO B to 80M on Radio 2.

With my K3s, I do not intend to use the subreceiver option ever. Is it not possible to have splits that operate between bands?

From Wayne's message yesterday, in response to a request for this
feature,

"This will be possible after I complete work related to the "VFO IND"
(VFO independence) menu entry. This affects a large amount of
firmware, and it won't escape my lab until it's fully tested.

73,

Hope this helps. I too am looking forward to this update. I know it
will get here when it has been tested and debugged. For now I am
using my K2 to listen to other bands on a second antenna.

I did the same with my FT-1000MP. Yes, it would be handy to be able to do that on the K3 also.
