Hi Stewart,
I think on the TS-690 (as well as the TS-850) the RIT affects the
digital synthesizer. Especially because the current RIT position is
displayed in decimal numeric form on the display. The A/D converter
won't be very impressed by a higher voltage from the RIT pot ;-)
But in the meantime, I built a small active antenna with a high-Q
preselector (L/C tank, and FET source follower) which seems to work
reasonably well. But the indoor QRM is still terrible.

Wolf,
Try setting the rig to 499.99kc and use the RIT to go up into the
501kc band. No more attenuator!!! That�s what we do on 505-510kc here
in the US.
Is the RIT control a stable input to the frequency synthesizer?
In some rigs it is a pot either directly driving an oscillator, or it
is an ADC on the control processor where it is used as a poor mans
digital input.
RIT was originally intended to provide SSB offset, not the 1Hz class
stability that is needed for QRSS.
