It actually does go back to split screen spectrum/waterfall in receive
mode. In transmit mode the spectrum display is replaced by the
modulation waveform, but the waterfall remains on the screen.
There are two reasons why the "meters" remain on the screen in receive
mode. One is that it would be pretty annoying when sending CW QSK for
example to have the window jumping up and down every time you key. The
other is that it would require re-drawing the waterfall every time you
go to transmit mode, which would lose all the waterfall data. I think
many people like to be able to look at the waterfall while transmitting
to see where the signals were the last time they were receiving.

Alan,
Has there been any interest in making the Power and SWR displays hide
when in RX mode and pop-in like the Modulation Envelope does during
TX? I do a lot more RX than TX and would like to configure it to go
back to spit screen signal/waterfall mode when not TX'ing.

It will do that if the K3 is in transmit mode but with no power coming
out. The P3 auto-scales the modulation display amplitude, so if there
is no signal it jacks the gain way up and you see quantized noise.
The next version of P3 firmware will limit the maximum gain so you
don't see so much noise in that situation.
