I have to agree that this change was not so smart (maybe clever, but not smart).

While I admit that I never thought about the guys who "do this
commonly" (I think they are the VHF types), I do think that this mod
was a case of being over-zealous in the "we can do it" mentality as
compared to the "what will the VAST MAJORITY" of users want?  I bet
that this isn't even close to an 80/20 rule.

I'm an HF CW type who *does* use it, because I often (not always) want to keep the sub-receiver set up differently from the main rx. Very often I have the main rx set for 100 Hz. bandwidth to hear a weak DX station while the sub rx is set to 1kHz. to find the station he is working more easily.

On the other hand, sometimes I want them the same, and I can chose just by tapping the key once or twice.
