But if you're trying to sustain a high run rate on CW, it is awfully easy 
to get the receive VFO so far off center in one direction that you miss the 
caller on the other side of zero beat (I use 400 Hz filters while 
running).  That's why I rely on TR's RIT Clear function.  An A=B command in 
TR that matched A VFO's frequency to B's would work fine too, if it 
existed, and then I'd certainly agree with you.
