Thank you Joe - I actually was able to do all these steps before your post and it all worked perfectly. The only Gotcha for others using Icom Split Transceivers (IC-9700/IC-905/IC-705) -
1. Configure WSJT-X (and everything else) as you do for digital EME. 2. Be sure that "Settings -> Radio -> Mode" is set to "None", so that WSJT-X will not continually reset your rig to USB or Data/Pkt. 3. Set the rig to CW mode. Rig should be in Split mode already and it it is not, enable Split mode. Use the Icom touch screen to switch between VFOA/B and ensure each of them are in CW mode. You can make the mistake of only setting RX in CW and Key will not TX. 4. Use the WSJT-X "Tune" button for manual T/R switching. Effectively, you'll treat the "Tune" button as if its label were "CW Tx". WSJT-X will generate its normal "Tune" audio tone while you're transmitting, but the radio is in CW mode and will ignore it. The reason for my post and request was just to see if we can get the “Icing on the Cake” and have WSJT-X the TX VFO auto update during Monitor only so that WSJT-X Tune is not necessary. Just to confirm, everything above works perfectly. IMHO, this would go along way to generating goodwill in the CW community.
