But is there a real reason why its not possible? Or are we simply a firmware update away from being able to do what the 9000 can? It wouldn't be optimal but heck even if N1MM would simply operate A/B then TX then operate A/B again in quick succession and log it under the VFO B slot it could be a work around and then they could do that with many other radios. But honestly I find it hard to believe that cross band split isn't possible with the current hardware.
