I too would certainly hate to have a rig that behaves the way you 
describe.  What was it?  I'd like to make sure I avoid it!

Happy Christmas.

Especially one rig that would sort of lazily drift up over a few seconds to somewhere in the neighborhood of the indicated frequency. Maddening - and needless to say it didn't stay in my shack as many days as the Orion has months.
