I was thinking of putting in this 'Feature Request' and wanted to see if there is some issue I might be missing first. Or if someone has a better way.

I do a LOT of cw DXing, usually the DX station is operating split.
Most of the time the split isn't that wide, 3 to 6 kc or even less.

So if you are qsying by clicking on a cluster spot in one of the logging programs, you frequently end up with the DX station signal/passband being in the center of the panadaptor but the split passband being out of window.
Or a portion of the split portion passband depending on the filter size.

Now in DXing, 'he who gets there firstest with the mostest wins'. So I'd like to see that when PWSDR is activated by a logging programs ability to qsy to a split type cluster spot, it 'attempts' to place both vfo passbands INSIDE the panadaptor window if possible. If not possible, at least move the DX stations passband to the left so as much of the 'split passband' can be viewed and watched for worked stations of useable holes in the pileup.

I normally use 192 so as to see as much of the band as possible.

I still don't know how to program my VCR, so can't even guess about the complexity of such a request and it's value/time expended ratio.

In RTTY dxing, placing the DX stations passband to the far left and showing as much as possible of the split passband is a great advantage, especially in poor propagation.

Yesterday I was able to snag XW1B on 30 meter rtty this way. By watching his split passband, I SAW the station he was working and was able to drag my xmit vfo just above it.

What do you guys think?
