Implicit in your statement is that the transceiver, automobile, roadway or whatever should make it impossible for the operator to have an accident. That's not possible - there are those who can break an anvil. The current design that *THREE* separate indications of split operation. Any *one* of those should be sufficient. *NONE* of the proposals do anything to address the real question which should be how to notify the operator that he *should be in split*. The problem is that the operator *is not paying attention*. The correct approach would be: every time the operator activates transmit, the rig display should show a message that says "you are in transceive (simplex) - are you sure you should not engage split? Press XMIT to begin transmitting" 73, ... Joe, W4TV On 2015-02-18 10:40 AM, David Cole wrote:
Dave (AB9CA), Given your logic, we should get rid of all street signs, and stop lights, and guard rails on bridges, and roads, because the drivers are just initiative, and the crutch o guard rails is not needed for them.
