Go to setup; AFC/ATC/PLL then set the 'sweep' number to something
like 0.4. I believe the figure is directly related to the shift
frequency, so setting it to 0.4 allows the AFC to 'wander' by 0.4 x
170Hz, or 68Hz.

That is entirely correct.  The smallest pre-populated "Sweep" value
is 0.5 which represents 85 Hz.  I generally use 0.3 (51 Hz) and have
saved that to *all* of the saved profiles.

The biggest problem is that "MMTTY Default" restores a sweep of 1.0.

GRITTY AFC is superb. I hate hate hate MMTTY AFC, if I leave it on all
the
time it wanders off to infinity.

Tim,

That is user error. It only 'wanders off' as far as you have allowed.

Go to setup; AFC/ATC/PLL then set the 'sweep' number to something like
0.4. I believe the figure is directly related to the shift frequency, so
setting it to 0.4 allows the AFC to 'wander' by 0.4 x 170Hz, or 68Hz.
