Hi Olli

Thanks for the reply

Well yes the SW tells my radio that it should TX on the B VFO. But then 
again it is SW. A piece of programming that should work on 100000 of 
combinations of different PC HW and several OS. Nothing that you could 
test in all combinations. 15 years of working with production and the 
related automation involving a lot of SW have learned me to be 
sceptical. IT mostly works yes, but  sometime not. Right now i have no 
indication that it works or not. My K3 do indeed display an arrow 
pointing toward the A VFO, but it do dot change to B VFO during TX 
despite the fact that TX are on the B VFO frequency.  So the arrow on 
the K3 seems not to change when a VFO B TX are initiated via CAT.

Before we get there, yes i know that there are plenty of SW (Firmware) 
in the K3 as well. But the number of input possible and the number of 
configurations are limited and there for possible to test and have been 
very well tested by Elecraft and the K3 community.

I am sure the WSJT-X are a very well designed piece of SW and i am 
indeed very happy using it. I just like to be sure where i put an signal 
on the air.
