Not quite. I use the RIT knob set to 5 KHz steps all of the time, but it steps 5 KHz from where it's currently setting, and if that isn't a 5KHz multiple then it isn't the same as the Kenwood. Let's face it, on many bands these days we are almost channelized. The DX calls on 14.195 not 14.196789. With my Kenwood, if I'm listening on 14.003 and decide to check 14.195 I just turn the VFO CH knob and easily land on freq. BTW, the radio knows to change modes from CW to USB at 14.150. And if I think I may want to return to the CW freq, before moving I hit Quick Memory and it's saved and I can return to it with one button push. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
