[TenTec] DDS PTO replacement for old Ten Tec rigs

Curt and the group,

Nope, the 104 did not have a RIT. Heathkit relied on the external VFO to function as a rec only RIT.

The only problem I have is the lack of gray matter when it comes to writing the sketch for the Nano.

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.
