Please, NO!  One *wants* VFO B visible precisely so the split transmit
frequency can be set accurately without disengaging split.  The VFO B
frequency (*not* the KRX3 frequency) should not be hidden or disabled
simply because it is not being used unless the operator chooses one of
the alternative display parameters.

More to the point, split or dual Rx should override an alternate (Time,
PA Temp, etc.) display in the VFO B area and restore VFO B control to
the encoder.
