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

[Mike Reublin NF4L]

I agree Bill, it's a real nuisance. Maybe Wayne can tack this onto his main bill as a rider. It's a real life, almost-every-day irritant. No amount of additional split warning will help, it's still too many button pushes, and inconsistent behavior by mode.
