Yes, quite right. I managed to find the 1Hz steps but you need a steady hand as the TS-850 dial on 'Fine' is 1kHz/rev (ie 1Hz steps are about 0.3 degrees of turn!). For info, the IC-706 has 200Hz/rev
I used an MRF/YXM pre-amp (build from circuits on the web, or buy from G0MRF) with my IC706 with great success. The tuned circuits in the front end are very sharp with excellent out of band rejection
Bryan, if only (the lack of) selectivity is a problem and not sensitivity I would recommend to insert a (passive) bandpassfilter in front of the RX. QRM/QRN level at 136 kHz is that high that even a

Thanks for that. It certainly helps _me_. I have a 706/2/g but no 850. The front end of my 706 is so wide it recieves all the world at the same time ! but I am only one mile from a MW broadcast stati
I'm fairly sure that the TS850 tunes in 1Hz steps even though it only displays to 10Hz. If you want to reduce the tuning rate, you can get a tuning upgrader module which will reduce the tuning rate t
