[Elecraft] K2 SPLIT AND DX CLUSTER SPOTS WITH LOGGER 32 & N1MM

[Rich McCabe]

I would say you have a software issue and not a hardware one. I have no 
problems setting splits on the K2.

If the command you listed is the one for split it will not function. They 
are not doing the FB so its useless.

K2 has a split button emulation "SW26" but  appears they are not using this.

I am not familiar with your logger program and although its possible to use 
software to do the splits, they are not getting it done without  setting the 
VFO B.

73,
