Hmmm, That's true in diversity mode but not in dual watch. Both bandwidth
and shift and hi-low controls are completely independent. It's possible to
retrieve BW from both receivers but shift only from the main receiver.
Try it, just tap the sub button and use bset.
Seems like an omission,
All I know is that setting IS for the main RX also sets IS for
the sub RX.

Nope. only in diversity. Otherwise IS only sets the main receiver. If you
go into bset it doesn't change it and if you then give a IS; it only reports
a question mark. IS never changes the sub receiver shift except in
