Wes, If you are running on 160 or 80 in a contest and a weak signal calls you slightly off frequency, it's handy on the FT1000D to move the apf freq around to find him and enhance his signal. In theory you could do the same with the RIT, but it can be easier to move the apf, particularly if there is more than one weak signal. Maybe it's just personal preference, but I do like that feature. 73, andy, ae6y
