It doesn't matter whether you have a subrx or not. You still use VFO B
to scan a pileup -- you just can't hear both QRGs at the same time.

Since your listening and counting I 'm voting. I had exactly the
experience Bob had. Couldn't transmit, then when I thought I had it
all figured out (4 tries later) in my haste I transmitted on the DX
frequency :-( (mea culpa). I believe there would be no problem if the
sub RX is installed but under my current cx's it is very cumbersome.
On the other hand I see Wayne's point IF the sub RX is available. My
vote make it an op option. 73, Howard..K2HK

Wayne wrote: Suppose you're using SPLIT, listening to a weak DX
station on the main RX (in a very narrow bandwidth with preamp on),
while tuning for a clear spot with the sub RX (using a wider
bandwidth and preamp off). With one tap of A>B you can move VFO B
back to the starting point and work your way up again. If this also
copied VFO A's filter and preamp settings (etc.) to VFO B, you'd have
to set them up all over again. But I'll be happy to sit back and
listen to arguments pro and con. If it looks like a lot of operators
would prefer to copy everything with one tap, I could add a menu
entry. If no one argues in favor of two-tap (including the field
testers), I could change it outright. I'm easy :) Thanks for your
input.
