Have been using this software for the last week or so and discovered a neat
feature.

I was on 30M trying to work J68AS split.  I had VFO-A on his frequency and
VFO-B on the pileup.  I discovered that I could operate split with VFO-A on
my narrowest filter and VFO-B on my widest filter.  That way, I could hear
J68AS clearly, but could switxh and hear a wide section of the pileup
frequency.  In that way I could easily find who he was working and move near
that frequency.

On the K2 you have to keep the same filter with VFO-A and VFO-B.  That made
it tough to find who the DX was working as I have heard mentioned here a
couple of times.

With the software you can choose whatever filters you want.

Usual disclaimers.  I have no financial interest in the N4PY software, etc.
Just a user.
