I've asked for this too.  The pileup on VP6DI was 50 KHz wide on the first day,
and I have to admit that I resorted to my 850 (mea culpa!) to work them just for
this reason.

By the way, I've found it much faster to tap A/B when listening to the pileup
and then tap it again before transmitting.  Holding it to activate the REV
function is slower.
