I've not run into this problem as I just leave monitor on.  I'm just being an 
advocate here...(or just stubborn as my wife says) 
The remaining question is the inconsistency...whether or not one has a working 
freq for a mode doesn't seem like it should change the behavior...quite 
non-intuitive.Either all mode changes do it or none do it.  That seems logical 
to me.So it's either monitor=true in mode change or delete the one in freq 
change, isn't it?  Either would make it consistent.

Hi Mike,

as I said above: some users, including myself, start WSJT-X 
automatically before they wish to use it. The option to not turn on 
monitor at startup is needed otherwise WSJT-X seizes control of the rig. 
Some time later when WSJT-X is required, one can select a band or mode 
in WSJT-X and everything is set ready to go. The converse is true in 
that disabling monitor relinquishes active control of the rig allowing 
operation in other modes and on other frequencies. One click to start 
using WSJT-X (well two to select from the band drop down), one click to 
stop using WSJT-X.

I have explained how a configuration with no working frequencies will 
achieve what you ask for, doesn't that satisfy both camps?
