[Elecraft] SUB/Split feature request

[Ed K1EP]

I really am confused as to what idea this is referring to.  But I 
have a suggestion concerning SPLIT.

SPLIT is a feature that gets used frequently in DX chasing or 
contesting.  It is activated by pushing and holding the SPLIT 
button.  How long do you have to hold it?  If you don't hold it long 
enough you make the fatal error of transferring A>B which will lose 
the split frequency.  I would suggest a beep confirmation in the 
headphones/speaker when the split button has been held long 
enough.  I think maybe this has been suggested in the past, maybe 
even for all push and hold functions.
