 Try the following:

1.  Turn SUB off (so the SUB icon does not show on the display).
2.  Then hold SUB continuously for 4 seconds and note whether DVRSTY
momentarily appears in the VFOB area of the display.  If it does not, you
have a defective K3.

I timed mine the other day and it took >3 seconds to enter Diversity mode. 
If you don't learn how to use Diversity correctly, you won't be able to
operate SPLIT while in Diversity (which requires being able to set VFOB for
TX separately from VFOA for RX Diversity).
