I have noted something similar - say you set to fine tuning so you have a frequency like 14.280000. Then set to faster tuning rate. Tune down and up. You find you are on 14.28001, there is no way to zero the last digit again. Not that it matters but it is odd - perhaps a rounding error.
I don't know if it is just me but I find the tuning rate, even when set to fast and/or using the clarifier to still be far far too slow. I am sure it is fine to tune across 7MHz but tuning from 144.3 to 144.5 (to get from our calling channel to the beacon band) takes forever. Quite often you will reply tol someone on 144.3 and they request to QSY off the calling channel, often by up to 100kHz. I find I am forever pressing the rate button, or for large QSYs setting to FM and back. Otherwise by the time the K3 gets there the other station has gone back to 144.300 wondering where you went. This is of course how I noticed the last digit issue above. Mike David Andrews-3 wrote: > > I'm aware when tuning down a band on receive that there is a short break > in > the audio every so often.
