[Elecraft] KX3 Safety feature?

[kevino z]

It is a rigctl command to clear SPLIT mode. 

S, set_split_vfo     Set split mode, 0 or 1, and transmit VFO.

S 0 VFOA     turns off split mode and sets transmit VFO to VFO A

So I guess the better question is if you are in split mode, and transmitting (VFO B), and the KX3 gets a command to turn off split mode, and go to VFO A, what happens?
Does it keep transmitting but now on VFO A frequency ?

Troubleshooting issues with WSJT-X and just trying to understand what is happening under the hood.
