Brian, You are only in FINE mode when 3 digits are displayed to the right of the decimal.
But...If you press FINE to exit fine tuning and are back to two digits on the display and set for 10-Hz tuning, you should not be noticing the effect you discribe. You should not exit coarse tuning by tapping fine. I'll try to look at the effect of this later tonight when I am by the radio. ------------------------- 73, Greg - AB7R Whidbey Island WA NA-065 On Tue Sep 2 9:53 , alsopb sent: > >HI Greg, > >I expected the pan-pipe effect in the 100Hz mode. > >In the reported scenerio, after returning to the the 10Hz mode, tapping RATE >shows the 10Hz digit flashing.
