Hi!

 

Somehow, when I enter a frequency using the numeric number pad the actual
frequency that the radio tunes-to is slightly different.  For example, when
I enter 445.420 MHZ, the rig actually tunes-to 445.1875 MHZ.  This is only
happening on the sub receiver, not on the main receiver.  And, if I then use
either the VFO or the MFC to try to tune to 445.420, it moves instead to
445.425 - it skips over 445.420.  Seemingly, it tunes in steps of 02375 MHZ.

 

In fact, I cannot tune to 445.420 any way I try.  It is like there is some
rounding or offset thing happening.  I may have mistakenly pressed some
sequence of buttons that is causing this, but I do not know how to undo
this.

 

Thanks & 73,

Richard KK6MRH
