  As I understand it, the DDS-2A does not support computer control even =
though
  it has a DB-25 connector.  Too bad it would make for a great second =
contest
  radio.

Center.
  It has been 5 years since I first used this digital VFO so it was like
  hooking it up for the first time.  Yes, I disconnected the 312B-4 and =
put it
  on another desk!!

  > I know that some of you have these fabulous units.  I would =
recommend that
  before you purchase a 312B-5, that you consider the DDS-2A.  Details =
can be
  found on the Internet by typing in AOR DDS-2A.

  > I was monitoring a net on 40 meters for over an hour and the DDS-2A =
did
  not shift frequency.  Lovely unit to be sure and so versatile.
