[Elecraft] New K3 user... Can't figure out how to set up, and use sub receiver

When I first set up for digital modes on my K3 (probably in 2010) when I 
long-pressed DATA MD and rotated VFO-B to select DATA-A it came up in 
LSB instead of USB.  I was on 28-MHz so SSB ran USB, but not DATA.  I do 
not recall exactly, but I forced it to USB (I think using the MODE 
button).  Never had it change sidebands in DATA-A after that.

Of course several updates of firmware since then so maybe it was a bug 
that got fixed??

I'm still using firmware rev 5.67 (should probably update it).

---------------------------

Note: New in my shack is an IC9700 (talk about complicated and then 
there is the whole touch screen nonsense).  Spectrum display will be 
nice, though.  I already get that with my SDR-IQ running in parallel 
with the K3.

I might be on 6m FT8 during FD from home.  My HF triband appears shot 
(atu will not tune it-guessing problem with the traps) so no luck for 
running 20-10m.  I have a potential replacement from an estate sale.
