Hi,

Before I bought the K3, I too, was concerned about the fact that the main
(A) VFO display would not change when transmitting with split enabled, but I
am no more. There are a number of indications in the display that I am in
split mode, the delta-F LED is lit, the TX arrow points down to the B VFO
and unless you have an alternate display in the B VFO it will display the
transmit frequency. To have the main (A) display change when transmitting
really only makes sense when there is just one frequency display (which is
what I was used to, too). And I agree with Greg that having it swapping with
each dit on CW would drive me crazy. I also agree that when operating split
it is prudent to have the B display set for the B VFO frequency.
