I use my Flex-1500 for Frequency Measuring Tests by running in CWU mode, IF=
0 Hz, and analyze the 600 Hz tone with Spectrum Lab.  I have made a
spreadsheet to calculate the DDS offset correction for VFO-A, and can
accurately measure (non-doppler-shifted) carriers to well within 1 mHz.

 

Now I'm trying to use the MultiRX VFO-B to measure a 2nd carrier within the
Flex-1500's bandpass / Panadapter width.  When I measure a precision RF
signal, and increment the VFO-B in 1 Hz steps, I do not always get a 1 Hz
step in the ~600 Hz tone output.  Sometimes it skips a step, and then for
the next step it increments by 2 Hz.

 

Can anyone explain how the MultiRX tuning is done, and why the VFO-B reading
can sometimes be off by a Hz?
