I watched a few ICOM 9700 videos on Youtube and noticed that the display constantly switches from one band to the other while in Sat mode.
It seems to take place while the satellite tracking software corrects each band for Doppler during a pass and I would imagine that constant highlighting of the display would hypnotize the user after a while : )
Is there a way to turn it off?

Hi Tony,
It's how it works, due to CAT command issues... You'll get used to it ;-) Wait until we have microwave downconverters with the GOLF birds, during TCA :-)
