Yes, I've noted the proximity of the two buttons, but even being careful
not to hold the split button inadvertently I've still had the problem. I
like your suggestion about the lock button, though. Maybe Elecraft will take
a look at the issue and provide some insight and a solution?

Hi Jeff,
I experienced the same behavior. But after some investigation i found here
it was a user error. Unfortunately the A-B (Split) button is just beside the
REV Button. So when holding the wrong button because of my fat fingers the
Split is gone .... and UP calls are generated ;-)
Suggestion to ELECRAFT: in LOCK mode also lock A-B (Split) button -
I normally run the pileup with locked VFO. If this would also lock the A-B
(Split) button this problem cannot happen. Just turning off Split will need
holding two buttons instead of one. But in pileup Split mode I do not need
to go to the DX QRG. There are normally more than enough UP callers.
