[Elecraft] K3 switching to split freq question

[Jerry_N8BM]

Rob,

I'm not saying that some logging programs and K3 control programs are not in
need of some changes but your problem could have at least been
avoided/circumvented by something that I reported to K3 support some time
back.  CONFIG parameter CW WGHT was enhanced to provide a SSB+CW function
which allows CW keying in SSB mode.  Works great when not in SPLIT but does
not work while in SPLIT.  The response from support was that this was on the
'fix' list but again that was quite a while ago.  If this would have
resolved your problem perhaps another note to support would help.
