[WriteLog] K3S SO2V

[Ed Muns]

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.
