Apparently I forgot to quote the original message I was replying to. It
happens in Data mode only on 6 meters. It does it with both VFOs on the
same frequency (i.e. 50.276) or with one VFO a few kHz away, both VFOs
in Data mode. I probably would have never noticed it had it not been
for JT65 since WSJT-X always turns SPLIT on automatically and moves VFO
B around depending on where you are on the waterfall.
