Hi Bart!
There should be no problem in adjusting 40m at 7100khz.
Also there are things happening regarding 40m bandplan.
I don't know about PA bandplan , but LA(norway) and about 10-15 other EU
countries have secondary rights
from 7100-7200khz.
LA has max power out 100 watts in this segment of band.
SO if I where you I stick to manual and tune rig from script.
I did with K2 3829 and even then I have full output at 7000khz.
Good luck.
