Can I used the up or down arrows instead?

Actually I prefer the knob.....No comments please!

I know there is a way to calibrate my clocks atomically but I failed to 
pickup on the atomic calibration for my radio.  There is no way in the 
world that everyone but me is perfectly calibrated on each band etc...  
When I had my skimmer running the frequency calibration was difficult at 
best.  20m would be perfect but 15 might be off by little.

N2IC mentioned on the N1MM reflector that this issue is slowing everyone 
down, superior ops included.  Maybe those in the know should listen up 
.3 or some other secretly passed variation for others in the know.
