Most of you are missing the issue. The issue is that pressing SPLIT should do it all in one press. The three past rigs I've owned from the big three all did this. It isn't about AB once or twice. Brian/K3KO David Robertson wrote: Put me in favor of having the 2/1 tap operation menu

Brian, If that is the case, please tell us what specific transceivers you have used. Split allows on to transmit on the VFO B frequency (and mode?) while non-split operation transmits on VFO A. My K3 works like that, my K2 works like that, as do my Yaesu FT-900 and FT-847. I don't

Joe, In addition, there are several top operators who do *not* want the mode and filters copied from VFO A to VFO B every time. That was why the 2-button tap was introduced. So *no*, the AB should *not* necessarily copy mode and filters every time it is tapped. If you want to copy

It’s obvious that these is a strong difference of opinion on how the AB Button should work. Rather than one group shove THEIR idea of how it SHOULD work down the other group’s throat it would seem that Elecraft would be well advised to terminate this discussion and make this user-configurable.
