I concur that SO2V with an Elecraft K3S (or K3) definitely works in Writelog
and it is a very useful tool. However, since you cannot receive on either
receiver while transmitting you cannot efficiently interleave QSOs. You have
to cautiously use this feature when working mults or new stations on the
sub-receiver as you put your run frequency at risk .

WriteLog very much supports SO2V, and quite well with the K3.  With a true 
second receiver, two frequencies can be simultaneously received and when the

focus is moved to the second receiver, the radio is put into Split mode, and

any transmission is on the second receiver frequency.  The Up/Down Arrow
keys 
move between the two receivers, toggling in/out of Split.

This allows one to efficiently interleave QSOs on two frequencies on the
same 
band, even interleaving the QSO phases.  A common scenario is running on one

receiver and tuning the other receiver for new mults or stations to work.

The acronym SO2V may not be used but the functionality is excellent.  
Hopefully, it will be extended to an arbitrary number of receivers such as
in 
the high-end Flex radios.
