[Elecraft] P3 & marker B transmit freq.

Hi Peter,

There are several ways to do what for me are work-arounds but all 
require doing several things to accomplish what to me should be a one 
step operation, leave out a step & I hear the cops yelling UP LID or 
worse only to see the QSY did not engage transmit and I was 
transmitting on the DX transmitting freq.

I could switch markers and get used to thinking of the VFOs in 
reverse but since using the K3, A is the main & B is the 2nd VFO and 
I'm a creature of habit. Now that I have the P3, its all so obvious 
what I want to do but that detail appears not to be included in the 
P3 options at this time.
