I was pretty sure that I had tried this but I did it again to make sure I have 
not missed anything.  The results are the same.  The digital readouts for 
both VFO's read the same, but "A" has a CW or SSB station calling CQ 
contest, "B" has band noise.  The band noise seems real as I can occasionally 
hear it change and band conditions change.  I just don't seem to be able to 
change the frequency of the sub receiver, even though the digital readout 
says I am.  Arrrrrrrrrrrgh!

Thank You everyone for all of the email and advice.  I really appreciate 
everyones input.  CQWW is fast approaching and I want to get this fixed.  I 
hope to operate some of the contest from N0NI's, but we have out of town 
guests so I will have to be here for much of it.  I would love to be able to 
work a little DX in the mornings before everyone gets up.  I know, not 
everyone will operating split, but some of the folks I need will be, as 
everyone else needs them also.

Steve
