Thank you Charlie DL3WDG, Bob KA1GT and Mike W9MDB for looking into the code and putting your finger on it!
I can confirm that all 3 radios IC-705, IC-910H and the Flex6700 behave the same now depending on the "VHF and sub mode features” setting. VHF on = correct (fixed 1500 HZ) VHF off = tone shift based on previous mode setting or wide graph click And yes, the IC-705 profile was the only one that had it unchecked. Great find!
