I have what I hope is a stupid question. Concerning the matter of one handed
operation, why is it that the left mouse button moves the green goalpost in the
spectrum display, and the right mouse button also moves the green goalpost?
Why not move the red goalpost with the left mouse button? I’m sitting here
running QSOs one handed, except for moving the red goalpost. All of this is
assuming split operation in all QSOs, which I am doing.

My concern with all of this is not the change, but how to get the FT8 users to
change. Habits have already formed. I’m wondering if we should push harder by
inverting the defaults so that a fixed TX frequency is the default, and
allowing it to move has to be enabled. In the words of our new Laureate in
Economics, give a “Nudge”.

I have to agree that I like the new way of operating with rc3 rather
than the old.
I have had many start up CQing on my frequency because the software
caused them to do so. They work me, then they figure they would start
CQing because hey, there's DX on the band. Right on top of me because
both RX and TX moved.
With this NEW behavior you basically have your own TX slot. Everyone
should be monitoring the entire band and then the software picks up
when someone calls you.
One handed operation can be accomplished by clicking where you want to
go, then click TX-> RX. Not super complicated...
