Hi Leigh,
I've now implemented *optional* coarse tuning quantization (or
rounding). It'll be in the upcoming beta release. You can turn it on/
off in the menu.
1.5 kHz as a coarse tuning step size might be problematic since it
wouldn't be aligned at 10-kHz points as you tune across the band.
Once yo make this change I can see an advantage to offering a 1.5 KHz
coarse tuning option for SSB mode, between the 1.0 and 2.5 currently
offered.

There will be a menu entry.

Hi Wayne:
With regard to the VFO coarse tuning. I would use it if it was disabled when
the VFO A LOCK function is active. At the present time, the knob is not
locked out.
I wonder if that was an oversight or if there is a logical operational
reason to keep it enabled.

Wayne,
In the spirit of not desiring "magic buttons", I can say that if I want
that behavior on my radio, I will set the dial (with VFO A knob) to
".00" and then I can use the RIT knob to move in 1 kHz increments.
In other words, I like the behavior as it is now. If I am tuning the
SSB portion
If I interpret the geekSpeak correctly, this looks like rounding off the
frequency whether the user wants it or not. Coarse tuning rounding off
when using the main tuning control is not a problem, but when the
RIT/XIT tuning control is configured for coarse tuning works just fine
for me the way it
And something I quite like, since so many ops seem to aim for the .00
freq anyway.

Sorry -- geekSpeak :)
Suppose the VFO were tuned to, say, 7040.23, in CW mode. Further
assume your CONFIG:VFO CRS menu parameter is set to 1.0 kHz (i.e.,
your COARSE tuning step is set to 1.0 kHz in CW mode). If you then go
into COARSE mode and move the VFO up one tic, you'll get 7041.23 wi
Quantizes? What's that mean? ;-o

I plan to change VFO coarse tuning in general so that it quantizes.
Tapping CLR to accomplish this strikes me as further control
overloading, which I want to avoid. Besides that, CLR clears the RIT
offset even if RIT is off.

On Kenwood transceivers there is a menu option to either have the Multi
knob leave the least significant digits alone or round them off, it's
menu item #5 on a TS-480.

I like it a lot, as long as another press of clear restores the off
Not too long ago there was some debate about the Fast QSY function that
can be used if you set VFO OFS = 1.
There were those who feel that the fast QSY function should *not* clear
the LSB's so that if you use it (or perhaps accidentally bump it) you
have an easier time getting back to the freque
