I just tried that and it works the way you describe. I also tried using the sub RX to listen on the lower frequency on VFO B while running the TX and main RX on the VFO A in the band, and that worked fine. I don't think the main RX is allowed more than a few kHz above or below the authorized bands. You can make it do that with some computer control programs if you really want to.

Hi,

I know this sounds like a stupid question, but i haven't encountered this
situation before, so please humor me along.

I was trying to work an Armed Forces Day station, NAV3, who was on 13974,
listening 14254. I tuned him in on the sub rx but when I attempted to work split with the tx on VFO A, the radio wouldn't do it. Outside the range, it said.
Has anyone else had this problem?

As you can now see, this situation comes up only once a year.

Tnx & 73,

Ray W2RS
