Hi John:

	I built K1 #1773 for the 150KHz span and used it for a couple of weeks.
General tuning around seemed OK, but when using the SPOT function
to sync frequency with another station, the tuning was just too touchy for
my taste.

I changed #1773 over to the 80KHz tuning and have been glad that I did
ever since. It's really a mater of taste, but the slower, smoother tuning
is just to my liking.

YMMV
