[TenTec] Eagle vs. TS-590S

[Dave Edwards]

RIT on most rigs works perfectly.
It is not "split".
It is for use when the station in communication with is slightly off 
frequency. Perhaps he is running separates, or something old.
You don't want to adjust your dial, or else he will too....and you will 
walk up or down the band.
Pop on the RIT, adjust to your liking, and all is fixed.

Of course....on CW, you can use it to adjust the tone frequency to your 
liking, without changing transmit frequency.

....Dave
