[Elecraft] K3 Split Operations

[David Yarnes]

I was confused at first by W0JFR's query.  I think what he is asking is if 
you can simply reverse the split process so that you are transmitting on "A" 
and receiving on "B".  But I don't think you can actually do that--not 
without swapping the frequencies with the A>B button first.  In split 
operation, the transmit freq. will always be what is shown in the "B" 
position on the display.

Set VFO A to the RX freq, set it to the mode you want, tap the A > B button,
tap the A/B button and swap the VFOs to make sure Both VFOs are set to the 
same
mode.  Now hold the A>B button for at least a half second.  You will now be
transmitting on VFO B and Receiving on VFO A.

This is a little more detailed than the instructions on page 34 of the K3 
Owners
Manual under SPLIT Operation at the top left of the page.

If you don't have your K3 yet, I suggest you download the manual from
http://elecraft.com/ and select Manuals and downloads.
