That works. Started with both VFOs on LSB and Mode=USB and rig split. On band change it switched to USB and left bandwidth alone. But why couldn't you just remember the bw from get_mode and keep using that rather than wholesale changes to hamlib? And allowing the user to put bandwidth in the rig s

I've been using USB/Rig Split for a LONG time. 6590 started changing the bandwidth. Changing to Mode=None stopped it. (still on rig split) 6596 still shows that behavior 6597 still shows that behavior. However, on 6597 if I switch split to None and Mode=USB, then the bandwidth does not change

The changes had a negative affect here, Bill. My IC-746 VFO A changes to the correct frequency when entered in the drop-down band window, but VFO B remains on whatever frequency it was set to before. Also, changing frequency using the Wide Graph has no effect of the rig at all.
