Larry,
The K3 will set the mode, frequency, etc. of VFO B the same as VFO A if
you tap A->B twice.
The K3 *can* transmit cross-mode if you set it up as indicated on page
36 of the manual.
With cross-mode operation possible, it is not desirable to set all
parameters of VFO B to the same as VFO A unless the operator intends to
do exactly that. Thus the double tap is required.
