WSJT-X and Split operation with transverters

[Conrad PA5Y]

Hi all. I use the WSJT-X split mode with my K3S on 6m to ensure that if I wish to TX with a low audio tone I will not have audio harmonics in the passband of the TX filter. This works very well. However when I tried it on 2m with my K3S and a transverter I get a message SPLIT N/A. Is this a menu setting that I am not aware of? I have checked that Diversity is not on for the XV-2 which is what I use for 2m.

It is a very useful feature when it is busy as I can often find a gap low down or very high.

Any help appreciated.

Conrad,

Make sure VFO A and VFO B are on the same band and mode.  An A>B button
tap will accomplish that.

To put a K3(S) into Split mode for DATA, both VFOs must be in same Mode/Submode before initiating Split. Easy way is to tap A=B twice quickly to copy frequency and other settings to VFO B.

Thanks to all who helped with this. It appears that VFO B was on a different mode when I selected 144 MHz XV-2. So copying A>B worked fine and now I have split on 144MHz as well. It's a mistake that you only make once and will never be forgotten!
