[amsat-bb] SatPC32 - Change xmit freq while transmitting?

[Roy Dean]

I use a 706MKIIG for my Tx rig, controlled by Gpredict (via Hamlib), and it
DOES change the Tx frequency during transmit.

The only problem I've seen is that it doesn't seem to maintain Tone
settings, so if you need a tone on the uplink, you have to constantly turn
it on as everytime the frequency updates the tone setting is erased.
