Thanks Steve but that's the code that I was talking about. I already have 
AD7C's code modified to tune 5 to 5.5 MHz, I just need it to shift frequency 
slightly with a DC voltage for RIT. AD7C , himself was one who said he tried to 
map an analog input on the Arduino to a frequency shift and didn't like it 
because he said it wasn't smooth enough to use for RIT. That's why I'm trying 
to do it this way - to mix a VXO with the DDS in order to get a RIT line.

I can post the code I have so far right here, if that's okay with the 
moderators. Also, where's a good place to post pics and schematics so folks 
here can access them?

Also, Mike... If that's all you need... a DDS that has an input line that 
applies a shift in frequency, then code like the modified AD7C code would work. 
Are you sure there's not a voltage-controlled RIT line needed in the SB-104?
