Hi John,
You can change the KX2’s coarse tuning rate on a per-mode basis using the VFO
CRS menu entry. In CW mode the default is 0.1 kHz, but you can set it to
something higher. This would allow you to QSY much more quickly.
Another trick: Whenever the OFS knob’s LEDs are both off (RIT and B),
Thanks Don(s) - I had no idea the course value was configurable. That'll
teach me to RTM...

John,
Check the left column on page 16 of the KX2 manual. The OFS/B knob can
be used for coarse tuning of VFO A to allow rapid frequency excursions
of the band. Also see VFO CRS in the menu.

With Bouvet off the horizon for the time being, I've begun to use my KX2 as
more of a Main Rig lately and wonder if a feature could be considered in a
future firmware release.
The RATE button currently toggles between two rates. Could a third rate be
added that changes the step to kHz (as opposed
Hi Doug,
Yes you are correct the RATE button will change the tuning rate of the VFO A
knob, and the OFS mode will use the VFO B Knob to change the frequency of
VFO A at the VFO-CRS rate.
Whilst it does duplicate features it also allows the MAIN knob to be left at
a slow rate and OFS used for quick

I believe that if you use the"rate" button to the left of the main tuning
knob, on the bottom row that it does this function. At least, that was
what I was doing before I realized the OFS knob does the same thing. I

Using the OFS mode for Course tuning and the Main VFO knob for Fine tuning
is great but this is at the expense of the DISPlay function.
It would be great to leave the VFO B display set as DISPlay but still have
the option to Course tune via the VFO B Knob, rather than changing the
tuning rate of t
