I run my original Kenwood TS830 (I lurk here because I am thinking of purchasing an Elecraft, and wanted to see what folks have to say). I was surprised the first time I heard someone manually scanning the bands, and there were regular pops. They were at regular intervals, but I don't recall the freq step. It was on even boundaries, though, such as 3.900000 and so on. Not sure if it was on all bands, and I don't recall which rigs had it. Even so, it was more like clicks than pops, and not very loud. they would click in both directions as the boundary passed. I asked an op to "hold" on a click, but it was not possible. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
