There may be another way to do what I used Link for as well; but FWIW:

Chasing DX, I often operate split (with the sub-receiver) and, when split,
I have the audio set for RX frequency in the left ear and TX frequency in
the right.  However, when prowling the band I find the different audio
streams distracting.   Link allows hearing the same frequency in both
ears.  When the pounce is ready, having independent audio streams
(unlinking) is useful for locating the TX offset and working into the
pileup.
