[Elecraft] K3: How to set Split in PSK31 Data mode

Hi all:
A local friend brought this to my attention.
Seems he is trying to set Split on PSK31 using the radio built in PSK31
keyer/decoder and terminal via RS232. When he tries to set Split, the radio
tells him "SPL N/A".
I tried this, and I can set Split to function normally in RTTY, both AFSK
and FSK, but I get the same indication when I try to set a Split using PSK
31. Im not a digital mode person, but I do understand that you can do this
sort of thing using a computer decoder. My friend prefers not to use a
computer, and really enjoys the internal PSK transmit/receive feature using
the CW paddkes.
He tells me the manual does not explain the issue. He's right!
He does not have a second receiver. I do, and can work around the issue
this way. I can also work around the issue by using XIT, but it is
cumbersome.
Is this a firmware bug or is this normal? What's the secret to setting
split in PSK31?
Thanks for the input!
