I do have *one* criticism of the FT5's operating: I don't think they're
indicating that they're split often enough.

I just don't know that it's reasonable to expect people to just
naturally know that any rare expedition is likely to be working split.
That knowledge certainly comes with experience, but every DXer starts
without experience and can only acquire experience by working DX! "TU
FT5XO UP" might be a good idea.


The op on 40 last evening was doing exactly that for almost every qso.
