And yet I find it a valuable feature on my other radios. It takes some
serious intent to get the tuning rate to shift. Sensitivity can be
adjustable and the increment value as well. I personally find it
annoying to have to keep hitting a button to change the tuning rate. It
would be quite easy to make this an adjustable, customization feature
with a few menu options - off being one of them. Most current radios
have this feature.

I agree with Don and Joe. One of my radios some 10 years ago had the
feature. It could be turned on or off. Yet some really didn't like
it and some thought it was the best thing since sliced bread. To
me, my K3S in its present configuration fits ALL of my needs.

I agree with Don. The K3/K3S already supports three tuning rates
depending on the operation of the Fine/Coarse control (HOLD/Coarse =
100 Hz/step, Fine = 10 Hz/step, Double tap Fine = 1 Hz/step). In
addition, MENU:VFO CRS will select 1 KHz or 10 Hz/step and MENU:VFO
CTS will select 100/200/400 steps per revolution of the encoder.
Finally MENU:VFO OFS will allow the RIT control to move the VFO by
the COARSE setting when RIT is OFF.
The K3/K3S is already far more flexible and user friendly than any
variable speed VFO implementation (one reason I have rejected the
Yaesu FTdx101!).

Kev and all,
No vote on that dynamic VFO tuning for me. It would only be
suitable for me if I could turn it off.
I have used a couple transceivers that had that type of tuning and
it drove me nuts.
