However the tuning appears 'smooth' between the digits. When I set the receiver for slow CW the receiver is set to 00137.00 upper sideband so that the Spectran frequency display reading is meaningful. From experience I have found that the receiver setting should just be at the point where 00136.99 changes over to 00137.00. 1Hz resolution would be nice. > By IF passband tuning, do you mean the use of the 1kHz and 300 Hz filters on SSB ? On the '850 there is a control called SLOPE TUNE which controls the passband of the IF using two controls - very useful. -- Regards, Peter, G3LDO
