While I agree about the usefulness of a spectrum display we 
should note that the KX3 has Dual Watch which permits listening 
to the pileup with one ear while listening to the DX with the 
other. I covers most of the issues in working pileups.

I do remember one of the W1AW/P operators, wanting to work EU 
only, transmitting on the US SSB subband, but listening down in 
the CW band. That strategy made it illegal for US stations to 
call him. I also made his split too wide for the KX3 dual watch. 
But these kinds of situations are really very very rare.
