CQ's in the band map are useful in the following scenario (among others).
You are calling CQ , when a packet spot comes through showing a new
multiplier . You highlight the call of the new mult. in the band map and
the rig QSY's to that freq. You work the new mult. You now highlight the CQ
in the band map and the rig QSY's back to your run frequency hopefully
before someone else grabs in in the 15-30 secs. you were gone.
