I'm positive that I had everything set as desired.  I thought my original post 
said as much.

The Lock function survives everything, even band changes, which I find curious.  
Perhaps there is a need for it other than how I use it, which is to lock the A 
VFO when I use split.  Since I have no second receiver,  but do have an SDR-IQ 
bandscope I often use the REV button and the main tuning knob to set my TX 
frequency to the last calling station's frequency.  A slip on the REV button 
while doing this will move the A VFO rather than the B, so locking A prevents 
this. It would be helpful (and to me, logical) to have a memory recall or band 
change unlock the VFO.

The RX Ant state is not memorized.  This is easy to see.  Turn on the RX antenna 
and recall any M1-M4 memory.  It will stay on.
