[Dx4win] Filter settings reversed

Close but not quite there:
I just tried the modification to the X4 file and it is indeed better, but
not quite correct. The WIDTH stays for both A and B, but the SHIFT is
normalized in A. The SHIFT in B stays as it was prior to selecting the
split spot.

Jim,
Yes, I got it fixed thanks to Tom, W4KX. Here is what he sent me:
The problem is with the rig file (X4), which includes an errant command to
<NORM> the vfo whenever VFO B is selected (you can see this yourself when
you double click on a spot and the display will briefly show <NORM>).
The current commands sent to the rig under a "Select VFO B" is invoked are
"K31;SWH58;SWT13;SWT13;K30;"
It's the SWH58 command that norms the radio. So, just change the rig file
for "Select VFO B" to:
K31;SWT13;SWT13;K30;
and you will be all set!
All I did modify the X4 righ file by deleting the one command SWH58 as he
suggested. Works fine now. Some people may want to norm their filters when
they go into split. Not me. I like keeping my filter settings for both RXs
the same.
Dave, N4QS

Dave, did you ever resolve this? Does ANYONE else with a K3 have this
same problem?
