Re: [TenTec] Frequency accuracy

Pretty funny, Mike,

That's the curse of the digital display. Everyone operates on  a 
frequency that ends in 0.0000.  Nets are locked on frequency when we 
used to list the net frequency as "plus or minus for QRM".  Back in the 
day I was happy when I could interpolate the frequency on my HW-100 to 
within 2 kHz.
