[Elecraft] A way to show both "SPLIT" and "NON-SPLIT" warnings

[Mike Harris]

Will that include the telepathy module so that the K3 knows when it 
should be in split?  Unless I've missed something it still needs the 
operator to know when split is desired and initiate it.

It's all getting out of perspective.  The only programming needed is 
that of the operator, aka learning how to use the K3, not a big deal 
surely, were are big brained animals.

Thus the "NON.SPLT" or "SPLIT" would come on when you key, and stay on for at least 300 ms, the timer being retriggered each time you key. To get an idea of what that would look like, just watch the RX and TX metering scales as you key the radio.
