You are correct!

It is the "locked / unlocked" switch that controlls
the LMOs and the "TRCV and TRAN" switch that controls
the heterodyne oscillator and BFO connections.  My
brain was not functioning correctly and I had the
switches reversed!

I believe that this is incorrect.
 
Without using the crystal pack (either not installed
or function switch in "TRCV,") the transmitter freq
can be controlled independently of the receiver
frequency in the unlocked position.  Both units must
be on the same band, but separate control is possible.
 

The crystal pack is used when the function switch is
in the "TRAN" position, making the transmitter
completely independent of the receiver.
 
The "Lock/Unlock" control switches the transmitter
frequency control between receiver vfo (locked) and
transmitter vfo (unlocked).  This is possible with or
without crystal pack.
