That's kindof an odd question, IMO.... a line is a line - it's
visually obvious when you're going to cross it. The numbers on the K3
display are always there, whether you're about to cross a threshold or
not. You have to interpret the numbers to make that determination.

But the K3 already knows where the band edges are, as it won't let you
transmit outside them! It may not know where the mode segments are
with the bands, though...
