Joe, thanks for this information. Now I get it (I think).
Just to review, about a year ago, we got 10 Hz CW pitch increments with
firmware version 2.33. This allowed the pitch to be varied in 10 Hz
steps, keeping the signal centered in the passbands of both the roofing
filter and the DSP filter. However, the passband "SHIFT" control still
has the 50 Hz increments. The new firmware will provide us with 10 Hz
passband tuning, thus making the SHIFT control much more useful when
employing very narrow CW filters.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
