During these recent DXpeditions I've hear more "wrong VFO" transmissions than ever. What is this going on? Yes, some because we're all getting older and forget which button was tapped last but there are lots more than just this as the reason for the wrong foot forward in this tap dancing process.
Since there is discussion about improvement for split and sub receiver operation I think the subject also should be reviewed for single receiver/transmit operation. Is there any way firmware could be added to prevent transmitting on either VFO, A or B if it were on set to prevent transmit (by error) on a known frequency where the DX is tranmitting? When setting up to chase the DX-pedition if I could set up my K3/K2 to not allow transmitting on an identified frequency I'd be more relaxed and enjoy the chase.
I know that there are many DXers with different kinds of radios and are sure suffering from this similar problem in the feeding frenzy dance operation of Find, Tap and pounce.....
There should be a way to Find the DX, Hit TX inhibit for the frequency.
