Ted,

On the K-Pod, with the rocker switch in the VFO B position, it will do 
whatever the VFO B knob on the K3 will do.
If you have VFO B Alternate Display up, it will rotate between the 
Alternate Display items, just like the VFO B knob would do.

You could create a macro that would switch the display from the 
alternate VFO B display to the frequency display and use a K-Pod F 
button to activate that macro.

When the K3’s VFO B area display is set to the clock and etc. function, and the K-Pod rocker switch is set to VFO B, the K-Pod knob rotates through the display items and does not control the VFO.  As I thought about it, that does make sense – the VFO B knob itself controls one or the other depending on how the display is set.  I assume, then, that the K-Pod’s encoder output is superimposed on the K3’s encoder B rather than having its own entryway into the VFO.  It’s not a big problem, but it would be nice if the time and etc. display could stay visible yet have the K-Pod control VFO B’s frequency.  When using a P3 with the K3 in split it’s not always necessary to have the VFO B frequency shown in the display area. Is there some way to have one’s clock and B it too?
