USB when LSB better choice of mode

n8wrl

I often find myself going from CW to phone frequencies. For example, I may be on 3.525 and decide I want to jump up to 3.8 phone. I click in the frequency text and type 3.8. The mode stays CW, as it should, because I haven't changed it. Clicking on the mode tab shows me the available modes:

It should be LSB. I know I can pick LSB from the pull-down where CW is currently selected, but it seems like it should be smart enough to know I might want LSB and offer USB on the drop-down.

This isn't a problem for higher bands because USB is what I want.

Is there some config change I can make here?

Hi Brian, right click on any of the current selections to change them (USB, CW, AM in your case). Here is how I set mine:

To change the middle one (circled) I right clicked it and selected CW.

Since I don't run AM, this works great for me. Any time I run a less used mode, I just use the dropdown box. This is persisted and is not affected by profiles.

Yep! That does it! Thanks Len! I don't work AM either, so easy to sacrifice!

But it really shouldn't be 2 clicks on a mouse to change it. Automatic based on band, or 1 button push would be better!
