That's what you get when you start smooshing buttons.
Here's what happened.
You swap VFOs -- WSJT-X doesn't care.You exit -- WSJT-X saves the VFOB
frequency as the "last frequency" used.You start again -- if you have "Monitor
returns to last used frequency" it will then load VFOB's frequency into
VFOA.Of course rig split will set VFOB based on VFOA's frequency.
So...
#1 Don't smoosh buttons unless you know what you are doing#2 Turn off "Monitor
returns...."

Hello,
Comment: The following Human Induced confusion of VFO frequency occurs
on FT8 shutdown. Not necessarily a "bug" in WSJT-X. Just thought
I would send out the information.
Setup: Windows 10, Kenwood TS590SG, USB cable driven, both WSJT-X 2.6.1
and 2.7.0-rc2. Bands: at least on HF bands. Everything going well as
usual. TX frequency high enough to separate VFO A and VFO B by 1.000
kHz (RIG SPLIT) in this example.
Action creating problem: Human manually toggles VFO A/B button. Now VFO
B is in the main position, VFO A on the side, no frequency changes have
occurred in either VFO. Next steps: EXIT out of WSJT-X. Restart
WSJT-X. Now VFO A displays what VFO B was displaying. VFO B is still 1
kHz higher, which is now 2 kHz from the original. Examples follow.
TX = 2800 Hz
PC rig rig
FT8 Display VFO A VFO B
24915.00 24915.00 24916.00 <-A on main, B on side. Not in QSO.
Toggle A/B on rig.
24916.00 24915.00 24916.00 <-B on main, A on side. Not in QSO.
EXIT and restart. Symptoms begin.
24916.00 24916.00 24917.00 <-A on main, B on side. Not in QSO.
This effect also might happen on other CAT-based rigs?
Problem with hamlib?
