The K3 CAT API makes it extremely easy to tell whether Split 
is engaged.  Split status (defended as "transmit on VFO B") 
is reflected by the "p" byte (byte 33 of 38) in the IF; data.

Direct control and status for the subreceier was recently 
implemented [MCU 3.46] in the SB; set/get command but status 
has been available in both the IC {MCU 2.51] and DS get 
commands for quite a while.
