"Of course if you get too far away from your run frequency, you'll have
to increase the P3 span so that you can still the VFO B cursor"
Therein lies the problem: With the span set to more than 10 kHz, it's
very hard to resolve CW signals on the P3. A VGA display would help, of
course, but I'd rather not go that way.
Anyhow, I'm hoping maybe just a little mod to the K3(s) firmware could
provide a way to use RIT with VFO B.

promising signals. However, I sometimes wish the RIT would work
with the
sub-receiver on VFO B. Has anyone found a way to do this? Even better
would be to have RIT on VFO B and XIT on VFO A.
When running SO2V unassisted, I find it easiest to do the opposite:
CQ on VFO A, and S&P on VFO B. Then you can have the RIT on A and
watch the VFO B cursor track VFO B. Of course if you get too far away
from your run frequency, you'll have to increase the P3 span so that
you can still the VFO B cursor, but this is the best way around this
problem for now, without resorting to extra hardware.
Of course assisted operators can just send a spot to VFO B to have a
listen.
