A pot. Hmmm wonder why Kenwood used such a simple component rather than the
optical encoder scheme?

On the
TS850 the RIT is a variable resistor not an encoder (It's
VR6 on the SW_A
board). It is normal for this arrangement to go
to an ADC on the processor
which then controls the synthesizer
- adding or sutracting a nominal amount
from the frequency set
by the main dial.
Therefore RIT will only be
as good as the stability of the pot (mechanical
and electrical) and the
stability of the supply voltage.
