[Elecraft] K3 Freq Readout

[Amateur Radio Operator N5GE]

Vidi,

The solution is on the VFO A display.  If in fine there are three decimal
digits.  Tapping while in fine mode gives you two decimal digits, coarse mode
gives one decimal digit and tapping rate gives you two decimal digits.  In any
case tapping fine gets you back to three decimal digits.

What am I missing here?

Tap once for slow rate and tap again for high rate etc etc.  So, what I wood like, if possible, is to know which rate is selected, after being side tracked here in the shack, without having to find out by turning the main dial or by punching the button again to see which digit will be flickering.  So, my request is  to find out how if it is possible to change the freq readout so that in slow rate, the display  would show up to 10Hz readout and fast rate  only up to 100Hz readout, similar to the COARSE mode, but alternates between fast and slow tuning rate.
