There is an indication that the frequency is linked: a flashing decimal point on the VFO B display. But since VFO linking is rarely used, I'll add a menu entry to "opt in".

Today it happened again for TX5K, last year for PT0S and HK0NA,
probably for other DX stations as well:
The DX station TX frequency is jumping up/down.....

And the reason is:

The Link function is activated when holding down the SUB rx button for
a short period of time, and there is no indications in the display to
tell that the VFO's are linked.

The operators is probably going to use the Lock function, on the RATE
button, instead push the SUB button (yes, lock is clearly labelled
above the SUB button.....)

I suggest to make Link/UnLink as a Menu option instead of a "hidden"
function on the SUB button
