Hi Andy,

The improved resolution ensures that the correct bin is detected when you get 
within +/- 1 kHz of the target ATU LC data bin rather than +/- 8 kHz. This 
improves repeatability of selected LC values vs. VFO frequency, especially on 
160 and 80 meters where it's most likely to matter.

This also means that, in the future, we could use smaller bin width on some 
bands if desired. This could be helpful if you were using the ATU to fine-tune 
a very narrowband antenna such as a loop or electrically short vertical.
