[LOGic] Bug when running K3 -- HELP!

[Bill VanAlstyne W5WVO]

I’m running a barefoot K3, SN #888, with the latest firmware (BETA 4.42) but 
no 2nd receiver (yet) or panadapter (yet). I’m using the Elecraft K2 rig 
interface, since there isn’t one for the K3 in LOGic8.

I recently (six months) started working DX on HF CW with my K3. As you know, 
most CW DX stations, especially DXpeditions, work SPLIT.

There a couple different ways of handing SPLIT on the K3. The first method I 
tried, using the XIT/RIT, worked OK – I would tune in the DX station, then 
apply RIT and find the pile-up, then turn on XIT and turn off RIT. This all 
works fine.

However, there is a more conventional single-receiver mode, and one which I 
would like to adopt. This is to go to SPLIT mode (XIT/RIT OFF). tune in the 
station on VFO A, lock it in, and find the pileup on VFO B. Once in the 
chase, you can simply press and hold the REV button to force receive from 
VFO B. The VFO knob can be tuned while the REV button is held in.

A better way, and one which I intend to go to one of these days, is to get 
the K3’s 2nd receiver so I can listen to both the DX station and the pileup 
at the same time, independently. But that will have to wait for the arrival 
of more discretionary funding.

With regard to the REV mode: Whenever I hold it in to tune around the 
pileup, LOGic8 gives me a message dialog all the wile while my finger is 
holding it in REV mode. These are 1-off messages, I would guess at least one 
per second. This doesn’t affect operation, but it fills the screen with a 
stack of these unnecessary messages, which I then have to delete one at a 
time.

Has anyone seen this? Better yet, solved it?
