Tracking VFOs

[Bill VanAlstyne W5WVO]

I seem to recall some discussion about this a while ago, but can't locate it now -- Is there a way to make the two VFOs track each other by a certain offset? In other words, I set VFO A to 50125.0 and set VFO B to 50125.7, and when I turn the VFO A knob, both VFOs tune, maintaining the 700 Hz offset? If this is not possible with one RX is it possible using the KRX3?

Hi Bill,

Just hold SUB until you see "LINK" displayed (about 1/2 second). The
kHz decimal point of the VFO B display will flash as a reminder that
the VFOs are linked. (If you continue to hold SUB, it will turn on the
sub receiver and put the rig into diversity receive mode.)

Once the VFOs are linked, you can tap A->B, then offset VFO B as
desired. VFOs A and B will track at the established offset until you
unlink them.
