Bob,

Maybe I'm missing something in this post but the post on this subject hits the nail on the head of what is desired. For those of use with a 2 VFO rig we utilize the 2nd VFO in dual receive like a second radio, i.e. SO2V. So there is a need to display the band map for each VFO and have each band map have spot automatically updated just as if it is SO2R.

To load a spot into the Sub VFO rather than the main VFO, in the band map
[Alt]-double-click on the spot
-or-
Right click on the spot and select "Pass frequency to SUB VFO".

This works if your radio supports setting VFO B (I believe some Icom models
do not support it).

For more info. see

Win-Test supports two band maps (Radio 1 and Radio 2).
