[Elecraft] K3 PSK-D Split Operation

[Bill McDowell]

Split operation is dictated by the desires of the DX station.  If he is quite rare, as in the case of VK0TH on Macquarie, he cannot hear the multitude of stations calling simplex and those calling simplex cannot hear his reply.  So split is necessary to complete the contact.  Exactly like cw, ssb or rtty.

My observations on this subject are based on using the native PSK capability in the K3, and not from some other software package. Split operation may be available from them as Don suggested.

*Bill,

By all means educate me please.

Why would split be used on a narrow bandwidth signal such as PSK31?
