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

[Don Wilhelm]

Wayne,

I think that would be unnecessarily irritating for normal use with the 
frequency display blinking.

I actually like what happens on the K2 (which displays only one VFO).
In SPLIT or XIT, the display changes to the transmit VFO frequency - and 
the resultant 'blinking' is quite obvious.
What would be wrong with displaying the transmit VFO in the larger upper 
frequency display area (even if it is also displayed in the smaller 
frequency display area).  The result is a blinking display when SPLIT or 
XIT is engaged.

This would duplicate the intent of the "TX" arrow, which points to either "A" or "B" but is small enough to get lost unless you're looking right at it. No new semantics -- just a more visible TX VFO indication.
