K3 arrives and a question regarding the Transverter connections

Ross Biggar
At long last my K3 has arrived, its been a long wait. Now to get to know how to drive it.
Unfortunately the mic was missed from the package, but a quick call to Elecraft and its on its way.
Their service is tremendous, thanks all.

Transverter questions.
I intend to use the K3 on HF but also to drive a DB6NT transverter on 1296 (23cm) for EME.
(a) I have turned on the Transverter in the config, can I use the rig on HF as well as leave the transverter
     output turned on?  I cannot find anything in the manual about this, or maybe its bad looking!!
  I ask this question  as on my Orion II I  turn the transverter output off, to use the rig on HFand
  vice versa.

(b) I note the that I only have 3 figures for the frequency display, ie 1296 shows as 296, is this normal, or did
   Wayne et al not remember about 1296 and higher, (a tongue in cheek comment).

Best wishes to all
