I've been a user of FT8 F/H mode since its inception and I can't recall any 
instances where 
*genuine* F/H signals have appeared in the standard FT8 band segments; can 
anyone 
confirm any instances of this?  However, there have been (and still are) 
numerous stations 
using the MSHV multi-thread mode in the standard band segments; such stations 
superficially appear to be using F/H mode because of the multiple concurrent 
QSOs but 
they're most definitely not.

I use a specific, separate configuration for F/H mode and see no need to have a 
main-screen 
check-box to select the mode; as has already been pointed out selecting that, 
and any other, 
configuration can already be quickly and easily selected via a couple of clicks.
