[Elecraft] K3 Diversity Question: RIT

[Randy Farmer]

It occurred to me that might be the case after I sent the message. I'm a 
die-hard contester and have the tendency to view things through that 
filter. It's easy enough to simply re-tune the receiver when necessary 
to return to your transmit frequency, pretty much exactly like you'd 
have to do with the RIT knob. You can also do it without a manual 
re-tune. If you're running split and tune the receiver  (VFO A) slightly 
off your transmit frequency you can easily return the receiver to the 
transmit frequency by executing two front panel key presses: A/B 
followed by A>B. This first puts VFO A on your transmit frequency and 
the second equalizes the transmit and receive frequencies. You can 
easily assign the pair of keystrokes to a single macro and store it in 
one of the PF presets. That's what I do with my setup -- I then actuate 
the macros using the programmable buttons on my K-Pod. Once you get used 
to using the main tuning knob instead of the RIT knob you'll never want 
to go back.
