well I agree but on note indicates that the fix also allows to use the
wip
over the loop stick,,, not sure there is much use to tune lower than the
standard 100 K at that range it works pretty well on the local airport 
beacons etc when I allowed it to go lower and did not write to memory 99
I couldnt see much other than intermod ,,, reverting with a power on/off
cleared the ability to "tune" lower that 100 K
