I'd prefer two readouts - one for transmit frequency, one for

*two* different full size knobs to tune them. I hate it when you
have to
press a "function" key with one finger, another key with a different
finger,
and then take your shoes off to free up a couple of toes to access
some
stupid function that might better be available with its' own control
(perhaps on the back of the rig if it is seldom used).

Oh well .... getting old beats the heck out of the alternative, I
guess )

It's already been done, Jim.

It was called the "external VFO". Also accomplished by using
"seperates". A seperate transmitter and receiver... =)
