(As it is now, you have to push the VFO B knob to activate the VFO, which is an extra operation when entering a pile-up). (Major problem)

This would be particularly helpful in contests using a PC logging and keying tool, where you just want to know what is happening. The Monitor setting on the K2, does this very nicely.
