This is looking like a promising change to me.  I guess "start keying" would 
have to have a delay so it didn't flash at QSK rates.
Please consider adding a transmit color to the P3 too because when chasing the 
split dx I'm not looking at the K3 display at all.  
Thanks and cheers,

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] A way to show both "SPLIT" and "NON-SPLIT" warnings

Useful analysis, Rich. I agree this might cause some confusion.

Here's a simpler variation. Suppose we give operators the option of briefly 
flashing the entire transmit VFO frequency off/on once each time you start 
keying? This would duplicate the intent of the "TX" arrow, which points to 
either "A" or "B" but is small enough to get lost unless you're looking right 
at it. No new semantics -- just a more visible TX VFO indication.

This wouldn't tell you whether you're in split mode. But flashing the A vs. B 
displays would look quite different to the eye, so you'd quickly get used to 
looking for the right one as confirmation of your intent.
