I'm an HF CW type who *does* use it, because I often (not always) want
to keep the sub-receiver set up differently from the main rx. Very often
I have the main rx set for 100 Hz. bandwidth to hear a weak DX station
while the sub rx is set to 1kHz. to find the station he is working more
easily.
On the other hand, sometimes I want them the same, and I can chose just
by tapping the key once or twice.
