This is a good idea, but there is no way to do it in Win-Test.  You can
either right click on the spot and select "Pass frequency to VFO B", or you
can just press Alt+Double-Click (with mouse), to move VFO B.  This does *not

set).

If you are using an Elecraft K3, FT-1000, or FT-2000, there is a Win-Test
script to Swap VFO A/B that you may assign to F9 or similar.  See
http://bit.ly/wtscripts and read the readme file for instructions.

There is no way to dedicate the Secondary Radio window to VFO B (no SO2V
support in Win-Test).  Use the buttons on the radio to enable dual receive,
then use the SwapVFO script.
