[Elecraft] Feature Request: SPLIT on different bands

[Don Wilhelm]

Olli,

I think something like that would add confusion to the user interface.
In other words, you have a unique situation that is only applicable if 
split is on a different band, but the display will not reflect the 
status of the normal RX and TX parameters when in split.
