[Elecraft] Alignment And Such

Thu Sep 4 09:56:01 2003

Maybe I misrecall a statement once made by Eric about this issue, but isn't 
it possible to un-WOOW the bands simply by manually entering a frequency 
for the desired band (using Band+ and Band- together)?  Thus, if the 30 
meter band is WOOW, try entering manually 10,000, etc.  Please someone set 
the record straight if I'm wrong.

best wishes,
