Do you have problems seeing red? The P3 will show
a RED cursor for the transmit frequency when the K3
is split (or if RTI/XIT is turned on).
I managed to transmit on the DX frequency in my early days. (A
kindly ham read my QRZ page, realized I was quite new to this
kind of operation, and called me on the telephone to do a little
elmering. I am still very grateful to him.)
I was using the SVGA on my P3 where the difference between red
and magenta is somewhat subtle. (If I had looked at the P3
screen, it would have been much more obvious.) 20-20 hindsight
says that perhaps the VFO-B cursor should have been yellow,
turning to red when in split. There may be even better choices
when we consider working for color blind people.
