I set mine up at first for 80 khz. Tuning rate is just about right. Since
later I was doing some net work with it on 80 meters and above 7100 on 40, I
later changed it to 150 Khz. The tuning is "OK" on 150 but very "touchy"
and requires a more careful manipulation of the knob! I will probably
change it back to 80 khz. now that the FCC has "in its' infinite wisdom"
rearranged the CW segments on 80 radically.
My recommendation would be to stay with 80 khz.

"Another reason is that they are relatively narrow (30, 17 and 12 meters
together are only 250 kHz, which is narrower than any other single Region
2 HF amateur band)."
This comment brings to mind another question about the K1.
What are your thoughts on the VFO spread, 80 vs 150 KHz.
I'm leaning toward the 80KHz, - what has been the experience of those on
the list that have chosen 150KHz?
