That would certainly cure the problem and would have been saved the tumult of "LID" and "UP UP" I received at the hands of the big guns. I had never ever before had a problem going to spilt so when I hit split, I set the VFO and started calling. Much to my surprise, split never happened. And the cure to the problem is, as you say, simply do an A>B before going to split.
