A if marker A is active and VFO B if marker B is
active.
When a marker is turned on, it will be at the same
frequency as the last time it was on unless that
frequency is off-screen. In that case the marker is
automatically reset to the display center frequency.
(If you lose a marker off-screen, just turn it off and
on again to return it to the center frequency.)
When you change bands on the KX3, the markers
are automatically set at the new center frequency.

Using Cursors
Cursors show the position of the KX3’s A and B
VFOs, The position and width of each cursor shows
the passband being received. Two cursor shapes
may be selected using
MENU: Cursor .
The
translucent bar cursor or a “U” shaped cursor at the
bottom of the spectrum display may be selected.

14.250 kHz.

14.250 kHz.
VFO A has a green cursor and VFO B has a
magenta cursor unless split mode is activated at the
KX3. In split mode, the VFO B cursor changes to
red as a reminder that you will transmit on that
frequency. Similarly, if XIT is on, or if split is off
and RIT is on, a new red cursor appears at the
transmit frequency.

Whenever a cursor is tuned off-screen a small
triangle of the same color appears at the bottom left
