I notice the same thing. I would love to have VFO B show the K3 power out when I change bands. Right now "KPA500" and "OPERATE" of "STANDBY" are spelled out. They could be abbreviated leaving room for the actual power my K3 is going to make the first time I press the key. I'm always wary that something didn't change the power and I'm going fry the 500 with a full 100W of drive.
