Hi Mike,
It's never been able to reverse the band split from CAT commands. If you are sitting at the radio and operating it's not a big issue. You just take it out of CAT, reverse the split then put it back into CAT mode. If you are operating in an automated way through a sat like FalconSat-3 then you have to dedicate it to one split direction. Mine sits monitoring 70cm and transmits to FalconSat-3 on 2m.
I suppose it might be possible if you don't need to transmit to have it in normal mode (not sat mode) and then it will tune to the needed bands. That might work for monitoring telemetry on more than one band, though I have not tried it. I use SDRs for that.

I hate to give up on my trusty 736R I've used for years but. I got the 736USB for CAT interface and it works fine except for one thing. I doesn't want to do reverse band splits with the CAT.
It's documented in the HS 736USB sheet that it may not be able to perform that function, so I'm wonder if anyone by chance has figured out a work around?
Thanks!
