I don't understand why someone would want to operate split. The only time I
ever hear it used is for DX. Seems to me that the capability of trying to
working a few DX stations operating split is less important than being able
to tweak the RIT to hear the station I am working at the tone that is most
comfortable to me. Reducing the RIT range makes it less likely that the
station will drop out of a narrow passband when turning RIT on. XIT? Never
use it. I sometimes use the function for spot tuning, though. Each unto
their own...

Gents,

I don't quite understand why someone would want to change the RIT/XIT range
of the K1.

Since the K1 does not have dual VFO's if you want to work split the RIT/XIT
is all you've got.  Seems to me that the capability to work split is more
important than having a narrow RIT range.

Each unto their own . . .
