         If you do that you better remember to assign
Main RX to VFO B.  Otherwise you are wasting the
outstanding performance of the Main vs Sub receivers.
The beauty of the Pod is that you can assign both
Main RX and TX to VFO A, use the large Pod knob to
tune Main RX instead of the tiny RIT/XIT knob, and
still use the large VFO B knob to simultaneously tune
Sub RX to other frequencies in S&P mode (accepting the
poorer Sub RX characteristics).
