Tom, 

> Is there any way to tell my logging software the frequency of VFOB?

That's a question for the author of your software.  The K3 will 
indicate "split" (in the "IF" data) when transmitting on VFO B 
and receiving on VFO A.  The logging software should then record 
your transmit frequency from the response to the FB; (VFO B freq) 
poll and log the receive frequency from either the FA; (VFO A freq) 
or IF; (Operating Frequency). 

In Elecraft's CAT implementation, the frequency reported in the IF; 
data does not change between transmit and receive when in split 
mode.  I don't have access to a Kenwood rig for comparison. 

The fix lies entirely within your software.
