[Elecraft] K3 VFO - Linking

[Guy Olinger K2AV]

Hi Bill,

The D10 manual text has been superseded by newer firmware. The only way now
to do a VFO link is CONFIG: VFO LNK.

Tap on SUB toggles the subRX.

Hold on SUB toggles diversity mode.

This is true for both K3 and K3S. The K3S front panel has a yellow DIV just
to left of the SUB button. This change from D10 manual procedure was the
result of a lot of discussion, and would seem permanent because big E has
etched it into the front panel.

Tapping SUB does *not* clear VFO LNK

Holding SUB (turning on diversity) *does* clear VFO LNK

Note in VFO LNK, moving VFO B knob changes B) and *not* A). Moving VFO A
knob always changes *both* A) and B) by the same amount.

73, Guy K2AV
