Hi Jim, We see a lot of similar questions on the reflector. Self experimentation is probably the best method for you to fully understand the use of the P3 with respect to VFO B and split operation. Just remember the three cursor colors. VFO-A is green. VFO-B is magenta. When you are transmitting on a frequency other than VFO-A a red cursor appears. It will show up when you are in split (SPLT) or if XIT is turned on. There are additional identifiers on the K3 screen. the TX arrow points to "B". The delta f LED under the power button is illuminated.
Sometimes the red and magenta cursors overlap and you only see red. If you change the bandwidth of the SUB RX the cursors will vary in width and you'll see both. If the span of the P3 is quite wide the cursors are very narrow and you might not see these finer distinctions. If your span is narrow the red and magenta cursors might be off the P3 screen as denoted by a small arrow on the right or left side of the screen. Experiment and have fun. 73, Mike K2MK hf4me wrote > I had just noticed those lines but didn't think they were necessarily the > transmit freq as I was in CW and the line wasn't at 600 as I would have > expected.
