Thanks to N1MM, all manner of code can be put into your function keys. Of
late, my typing has gotten a bit sloppy and I can manage to hit the `/~ (top
left under the ESC Key). For me, that key will turn on the B VFO. If you
hit it, you are now listening on the B VFO as well as A. Not something you
really want, and if you don't realize what's happening, it can sound as if
you have a CQer or pileup on your CQ frequency.
That happened to me this afternoon. All of a sudden, I had DK9PY calling CQ
on top of me! And he wouldn't QSY! I put up with it for a while then
looked at the K4. I saw both VFO A and B lit! Groan.
I fixed the problem by adding a little code to my F1 key. The code,
{CATA1ASC RT1;}{CATA1ASC AB0;}{CLEARRIT}, does 3 things. RT1 turns the RIT
on, AB0 sets vfo B to VFO A and clearrit does just that.
Now, If I hit the `~ key, I will be listening on my CQ frequency in both
VFO's
