[WT-support] Logged VFO freq with SPLIT on FT-1000MP

[Bob Wilson, N6TV]

Guys, the way it works now may be OK.  Is there a new requirement that the
Cabrillo file show the TX frequency?  I am not aware of anyone being
disqualified based on "out of band operation" based solely on the frequency
logged in the Cabrillo file.

I think the log checkers may actually prefer that you log the frequency of
the DX, not of your TX.  It allows them to correlate packet spots to QSOs
more easily, to catch packet cheaters (people who enter as "unassisted"
even though they are using a spotting network).

Think of it as Win-Test logging the frequency of the callsign on that line
in the log.

Also, some rigs like the K3 let you listen on A, TX on B (SPLIT), or listen
on B, TX on A (SUB).  Which frequency should be logged?  It's kind of a
complicated question, but just always logging VFO-A seems like the simplest
solution with no real problems caused (since it has always been like this).
