Let's say I'm tuning in FINE mode (to the 1 Hz digit) and the VFO says 
50.135.056. If I then go to COARSE (to the 100 Hz digit), tune to a VFO 
indication of, say, 50.145.0, I intuitively expect that the actual VFO 
frequency will be 50.145.000 -- but it continues to carry the FINE 10s and 1s 
digits as an offset, so the actual frequency is 50.145.056, which is revealed 
by tapping the FINE button. This was probably an intentional design choice 
based on how other rigs work -- but it's not the way it seems like it should 
be, to me. Intuitively, it seems like if it says 50.145.0, it should be 
50.145.000. Am I completely wrong-headed here? Comments?
