Tx FREQ is what your country's licensing organization cares about (to 
see if you were transmitting out-of-band), therefore, it should always 
be in the FREQ field.  The ADIF spec is also clear, there is a FREQ 
field which is used for Rx/Tx freq if simplex, and Tx freq if split 
(FREQ_RX is for the Rx VFO).

Kenwood/Yaesu/ICOM radios all behave differently with respect to what 
frequency shows up in the band map (it depends on what the radio reports 
as the "active" VFO).  This is a separate issue from what gets recorded 
in the FREQ field.
