But it doesn't cost another button - the action to turn SPLIT off is
already there!

Unless you had your VFOs linked, they would probably not have been on
the same frequency before you invoked the macro anyway, so setting
them back to the same frequency may not put things back to the way
they were before.

Macros, by definition, are special instructions that expand into a
sequence of discrete instructions, and so are not stateful - you don't
"turn a macro on", you "execute" it.

Can you more clearly articulate what action you might take, after
turning the split off, that would require the VFO B frequency to be
something specific?
