[Elecraft] What happened to AM mode?

[John [K7SVV]]

Well, for instance, if VFO A in the 40 meter band had a 60 meter frequency 
and VFO B had a 40 meter frequency,  I would press the A/B button to swap 
the VFO's. At this point VFO A now contains a 40 meter frequency and VFO B 
would have a 60 meter frequency.  I would then press A>B to load VFO B with 
VFO A's 40 meter frequency.  Now both VFOs will have 40 meter frequencies 
loaded.

Come to think of it, I also saw mismatched VFOs in the 30 meter band too 
after updating the F/M code.  I don't recall if I see this every time I 
update the code or if it sometimes works okay.  I will have to pay better 
attention I guess.
