[Elecraft] K3 Impressions...Locking VFO B for split ops

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Yep, but that's NORMAL operation for me, a legacy of using a separate TX and
RX.

ODD operation is messing with the RIT knob. I avoid it. 

The LOCK feature is important: it's pretty easy to bump the VFO B knob. One
had to really flail about to hit the VFO knob on a transmitter in a separate
box ;-)

Many tnx to Tom, N0SS for guidance on how to setup the split ops and 
locking VFO B.
Here goes:

A > B; hold SPLIT; hold B SET; hold LOCK; hold B SET to return upper 
display to VFO A.
Now VFO A can be used as big boy RIT without bumping (moving) xmit freq.

If QRM drives you to another freq, just move VFO A to clear freq and hit 
A > B and VFO B follows while still being locked...this works if you 
even QSY to another band...pretty neat...

To return to normal ops: hold B SET, hold LOCK, B SET, hold SPLIT.
