[Elecraft] K3/KRX3 80M SPLIT

[James Denneny]

There may be a bug here.  The key seems to be simplex or split.  If I put
both vfos on the same 80M freq and leave K3 in simplex, SteppIR tuning is
perfect.  If I select "SPLIT" and key K3, the SteppIR controller heads to
35Mhz even though both vfo's are on same freq.

 

Fortunately, I have a band-aid.  I use LP-Bridge output to communicate with
controller.  I simply turn LP-Bridge output off when operating split on 80
and then I don't care what the K3 is trying to tell the controller.

 

I am running latest K3 firmware.  I have not investigated this phenomenon on
other bands as I only use the BiggIR on 80M
