[Elecraft] Re: Zero beat hint and why 800hz maximum?

[O. Johns]

Dear Lexa,

I'm glad to hear that 10 Hz increments are at least being considered.   
That would be a big help.  Even the K2 has 10 Hz increments.

But there is still the issue of the highest pitch allowed.  Different  
people have very different ears.  For me, the higher tones are much  
easier to hear, probably because of some hearing loss at midrange  
frequencies.  It seems that an 800 Hz top is just too low.  A top of  
1000 Hz or more would be much better for some of us.

Wayne, is a raising of the top from 800 to 1000 or higher being  
considered?  Is it even possible?

73,
Oliver Johns
