FT8 Ipad frequency shift lock?

Hey, running FT8 on my Ipad , is there a way to lock transmit audio frequency so I don't shift around with everyone I work?

Thanks,

    RX: TX: Frequencies

    The two entry fields are used to enter your RX and TX frequency in Hz relative to the Slice frequency. The values usually ranges from 100 to 2900 Hz.

    If you click on a line in the receive list, the frequencies will be taken over from the line you have clicked.

    However, you can manually enter different values or use the buttons =TX which will u the current TX Frequency as TX Frequency or the =RX button which will do the opposite.

    If the blue Lock button shows a closed lock, TX and RX frequencies will always be equ which is the regular operating mode.

    However, if the receiving station can’t hear you, you can switch to a different TX frequency. For this, just hit the lock Icon to change it to the unlocked state. You can then either enter another frequency or more conveniently select the TX frequency fro the Panadapter as explained before under Panadapter.

    Thanks Paul,

    I did find it earlier this week in the iOS sdr manual. Just never got around to reposting my finding.

    RX=TX checked - TX will follow receive

    RX=TX unchecked - TX frequency stays put

    Thanks and 73, Bill WW5M
