for my part I prefer the flexibility of using my equipment how I want to,
not how a computer tells me I should.

Well put Ivor. I feel the same way.

My most recent 2m radio (Yaesu FT1802) has automatic repeater shift, which I
have been forced to turn off as it tries to shift the TX on a few
frequencies which due to local convention, I require to use simplex.
Automatic features are great, especially if you can switch them off )
