Thanks everyone. For every complicated question, there is a simple answer: XIT.  Gee, amazing.

But W1AW/* uses Split for pileups. And many DXpeditions have used it (T32C for instance). While I rarely use any digital mode other than CW, I thought it was nifty to have RTTY and PSK31 as part of the K3. Turns out it is near nifty. :)
