It's simpler to use REV which is momentary so you don't TX on the DX station
when you invariably forget to poke A/B again. After awhile you can learn to
tune the pileup with your left pinky while also depressing REV with your
left index finger. Kenwood introduced this concept with "TF-SET" in the
TS-930S in the early 1980s and Icom copied it with "XFC".
I also question the usefulness of Quick Split. You need to learn to tune
your TX to anticipate where DX is actually listening rather than where he
says he **says** he's listening. They are often not the same!
