Most of the newer Motorola radios are like that. If the band is X to Y, forget about taking it to Y.005. The radio will do it, but the SW will not.
I wish I could get a 27 MHz spread out of an HT750 to do 444-473 MHz. So far, nobody has been able to do it. I just programmed a radio yesterday that was 450-470. The guy wanted a couple of ham repeaters in it (444r-449t). Wasn't going to happen. Motorola has become very ham unfriendly anymore. Joe M.
