[Elecraft] Why won't my K3 work split in FSK-D mode?

[Wayne Burdick]

As mentioned in the K3 owner's manual SPLIT is not available for all mode combinations. If you see "N/A" flashed on VFO B when you try to enter split, then either the VFO A and B modes in effect at present are not usable in SPLIT, or you may have VFO B in a different mode than you think. Try tapping A>B twice to ensure that VFO A and B are in the same mode. 

In any case where SPLIT isn't available you can always use RIT or XIT. If you have the sub receiver, you can achieve split operation without going into SPLIT mode: just use VFO B to tune the station you're listening to, and use VFO A to find a clear spot to call.

All I know is that with SYNC DATA enabled (I use it for WINMOR), it minimizes T/R delays by forcing the same crystal filter for both transmit and receive.
