Split operation

[N8LP]

I also like the idea of an initial offset for use with LP-PAN. When turning on Split, the panadapter would then clearly show both passbands in a predictable way. With A=B, one is hiding behind the other. With no preset, one could be off the screen.

"One touch split" from the VFO A frequency is an established menu option
on a wide range of transceivers. The K3 requires FIVE distinct
operations to set that up, leaving its owner several seconds behind the
game.

I strongly prefer the option of an offset frequency as a starting point
for tuning VFO B, because an offset of zero is the DX station's own
frequency - the one place we *don't* want to transmit!

Wow, Alan, Eric and Wayne, This is a great suggestion for future k3/P3
software:

Snip

End snip.

Thanks for the idea Larry.
