[Elecraft] P3 Feature Request

[k.igor at comcast.net]

I don't know about the XIT, I don't use it that often. But when split is active and VFO B is transmit frequency, it would be nice if the color of VFO B cursor changes to reflect that.

I agree that XIT is probably used much less often than VFO B to control 
the transmit frequency.  I think a lot of people use RIT (which does 
affect the cursor frequency on the P3) but fewer use XIT. 

In either case, it would be nice to have an indication of the actual 
transmit frequency on the P3.  I'm not sure that another cursor is the 
right answer though.  The display is already crowded with two cursors 
and up to two markers. 

I'm thinking along the lines of little arrows at the top and bottom of 
the screen, where the frequency tic marks are located.  They could be 
colored red to make them stand out.
