Olli,

Sorry for the 2 day old response, but I did not see any other answers to 
your question.
The transmit stages are associated with the main receiver - they cannot 
be associated with the sub-RX.

If you have VFO A on a different band than VFO B, without the sub-RX you 
cannot listen on the VFO B frequency, so I conclude that you have the 
sub-RX because transmitting without listening is poor practice that no 
decent ham would do IMHO.

It is a simple matter to transmit on the band that VFO B is set to - 
simply tap A/B to swap the VFOs and you are ready to transmit on the 
frequency/band that was previously set in VFO B - only now it is in VFO A.

This method may be different than you had with your TS-850 and N1MM, but 
the capability is there - just tap A/B (or have N1MM do it).

73,
Don W3FPR
