SSB to CW automatic VFO offset now working -- need testers

Hi all,

I've now implemented the CW mode offset that many have asked for. When
you switch from USB to CW, the VFO frequency is shifted up by an amount
equal to your sidetone pitch; switching from CW to USB reverses the
shift. It does the opposite when going from LSB to CW and back. This
appears to be the industry-standard way to do it, and I confirmed that
it matches at least one other non-Elecraft radio.

If you're interested in testing this, please email me directly. I'll
send you the present field-test code, revision 3.18.

73,
Wayne

Hi Wayne,

 > I've now implemented the CW mode offset...

I like it the way it is. I hope this will be configurable (on and off).

You can turn it on or off in the menu. Details when the next beta
release comes out.

You guys are amazing.  Nowhere else can somebody wish his radio would do
something and have it come true.

In reply to this post by wayne burdick

A quick look shows "as expected" behavior.  It seems to switch
modes exactly like the FT-1000D/FT-1000MP now and CW in SSB
works just like the FT-2000.  Those who are used to the mode
switching behavior of the Yaesu rigs should be right at home
with this change.
