[1000mp] 1000MP Clarifier Problem

[Gorsline]

I use RIT / XIT rarely, when using both VFOs for slightly offset receive to
enhance a very weak cw signal (the "bloop" sound helps my ears) and then XIT
to operate split.  I use RIT in that case to find where he's listening.
And yes, this MP feature was carried through to the Mark V - that control has
so many functions and feels like it isn't up to the amount of handling.
