I discovered this question there and will join to it.

   Will the KX3 features:
   - CWT mode enables FINE tuning
   - SPOT with RIT enabled tunes RIT, not VFO A
   be ported to the K3?

I liked these features at my KX3 a lot.

And I think implementing these features at the K3 will be a great
improvement as well.


Scenario
--------

You are calling CQ and the answering station is not at your tx frequency.


KX3:
----
Tip spot and your rx-rit moves to the calling station.
(your tx frequency will not change)

K3:
---
Tip spot and VFO-A (and so your TX frequency)  moves to the calling 
station.
May be the calling station wonders why you are vanished.



As spot is good but sometimes can not be perfect, in my opinion it will
be a good idea to auto switch on FINE tuning then.


I wonder that after a such a long time the K3 exists noone else
but John (KN5L) and now I missed these features.

So Elecraft, can you set this at the TODO-List please.
