Don,

I know what diversity is Don, and I use it as you describe.
It just happens that I sometimes need to concentrate on one channel only 
to make the QSO. That's where the A-A en b-b come into play. After 
finishing and logging the QSO,  I switch the K3 back into A-b with one 
simple keystroke F9.
