[Elecraft] Split operation - display of Transmit frequency on keydown

[Wayne Burdick]

I share Joe's dislike of the idea of changing VFO A to the VFO B frequency during split TX. It's just a major semantic disconnect.

However, we could do something like replace the leftmost 3 characters of the VFO B frequency display with "SPL" during key-down. Would that be obnoxious enough?
