Perhaps, but when working split, with the SubRx on, what is the real world scenario where you do *not* what to listen to your transmit frequency? It makes more sense (to me) to always use the SubRx to listen to "your place in the pileup," so you can tell if you are calling on a clear frequency or a crowded one. Also, why bother with XIT at all when you're working split? Just keep XIT off and the much bigger VFO B knob, or use a command to move VFO B rather than move XIT. It would be very distracting to see the VFO B frequency jumping back and forth in full QSK mode when operating split, with the XIT on and the XIT offset set to a non-zero value, which is what you seem to be requesting. I really prefer the way it works now. But frankly, I almost never use split. I find it much easier to put the DX in the SubRX and just move the big VFO A knob to find a calling frequency. I also adjust the BALANCE control (CONFIG:SUB AF = BALANCE) so that the DX is always louder than the pileup, and in one ear only. 73, Bob, N6TV ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
