nope, spot grabbers don't know how to set splits 'up' in most cases.  Some
loggers know 'up 1' I think, but its best to spot a frequency so that
everyone gets the split... if you really want to obscure it just turn the
listening vfo a bit before sending the spot, of course then you stand the
chance of landing the pileup on someone else.
