Hi Vic,
Perhaps a daft question, but assuming that the DX is working SPLIT, that I
am NOT using RIT nor XIT and that I am listening to the DX with VFO A. If
I now want to listen to the calling stations which would normally be done
VFO B, which also controls my Tx frequency when listening to the DX on VFO
A, and then reverting back to VFO A to listen to the DX before transmitting,
if I cannot use VFO B for receiving and have to use VFO A does this mean
that when I call after finding a 'hole' I would then risk transmitting on
the DX's frequency? If I understand correctly what you mean by copying 'the
frequency' from B to A, would that not slow down one's ability to change Tx
frequency rapidly in a pile-up situation?
I must be missing something.
