You have to integrate SO2V operation with the logging software. If you
just switch VFO's, you have to switch back to run mode when you go back
to the run frequency. Any small delay improves the chances you'll miss a
contact or lose the frequency, so it has to be very fast. With the
software I use, ctl-right arrow switches both tx and rx to VFO B, and
moves to the VFO B logging window. Ctl-left arrow switches back to VFO
A. There's no issue with using RIT when running on A and searching with
B, but then the P3 can't be used to find new signals more than 10 kHz
from the run frequency. Running on B solves that problem, but then
there's no RIT when running.
Actually, while RIT on the search and pounce VFO is most important, XIT
is more useful when running. The ideal SO2V radio would allow RIT on B
and XIT on A, automatically switching with the logging software.

Gernot,
If you have the subRX, why not tune to listen for those off-frequency
stations with the VFO B knob. Your transmit frequency is unchanged on
VFO A, so no need for RIT unless you are only listening to the mainRX.
An easy VFO A>B pushbutton will put VFO on the same frequency as VFO A
anytime you change your transmit frequency.

John,
the issue with SO2V is that you want to stay on your run frequency,
but be able to slightly tune up and down to hear callers which are
not exactly on your TX freq. RIT comes in handy here, as you just
press RIT or CLR after the QSO is finished. I don't have a K-POD, but
if it would let me do this stuff I'd consider buying one.
