Michael, perhaps you can explain to us why that disappoints you.
If it worked on CW, you would not be able to work CW when it's on.
And what on earth do you need it for on FM?

My manual says auto-notch does not operate in FM or CW :(

Look at 2.2 SSB Operation AN (8). Page 14 in my manual.

The Eagle does have a notch function. I don't recall how to activate it but
it is in the manual.
It's sort of useless, like all Ten Tec notch filters, since it is outside
the AGC loop, so, while it does not have the carrier, it also attenuated
your desired signal by about as much as it reduces the carrier.
The reduction to 20 watts in Tune is self-defense. Orion's do it too. This
is to prevent the presence of full 100 watts into a mismatch. It is good
policy.
Orion's had an option in which you could press the Power button, I believe,
to get 100 watts in Tune after match had been reached.
Red arid green the A//B VFO, there really is no A or B VFO in the
traditional sense and Eagle only has one tuning knob. Therefore, the A/B
indicator serves no function in transceive operation. In split operation,
that indicator should flip when going fro RX to TX to tell you which
displayed frequency is the TX frequency.
