Well, maybe that's just something I never noticed. That would explain why 7025.5 becomes 25500 (i.e., the radio assumes the mHz are 25, not 7. But it seems peculiar to me, particularly because under software control you can use decimal points. For example, if I send the radio 7025.345 from my logging program, it does take the radio to that exact frequency. 73, andy, ae6y
