I also like the idea of an initial offset for use with LP-PAN. When turning on Split, the panadapter would then clearly show both passbands in a predictable way. With A=B, one is hiding behind the other. With no preset, one could be off the screen. 73, Larry N8LP Ian White GM3SEK wrote:

No, you're not the only one. Some people use off-band split, so auto conformance of TX band to RX would break that. Since a double press of AB brings B on band very quickly, it does not appeal to me as a great step saver. The logging programs set the split explicity by writing the
