K3 Split Rtty ops with paddle?

CX7TT
Today, PZ5TT was on 17 RTTY working split...I set up to accomodate 3 up
but when trying to send with my paddle, it would not key the rig nor
transmit.  My 'workaround' was to use the A/B switch and work my timing
so he would see my 'print'....have I missed something? When using VFO B,
I cant use the paddle to send RTTY? I have also found that after
finishing keying with the paddle, the diddle continues for about 3 sec
unless I tap XMIT to immediately stop...

Send the prosign 'IM' to immediately end the transmission.

Yes, and another tip is to use the K3 memories to store messages for your
call sign and exchange (with 'IM' at the end) which is easier than trying to
send CW at 60 wpm to keep up with the RTTY output!
