[Elecraft] VFO tuning range of 150Khz

I've had a couple of K1's but I am actually constructing my first one from a
kit. I need to decide whether to set the VFO range to 80 or 150Khz. I am
leaning toward the 150Khz because occasionally I like to go up to the slow
speed CW portion of 40 (7.110-7.125 Mhz) and also because it would be nice
to receive WWV at 10Mhz. Every K1 I've had to date has been set for the
narrower tuning range.

I need to make the decision quickly since I'm about to choose which crystal
to install for 30M. If you have a K1 that tunes 150Khz how do you like it?
Do you find that the tuning is too sensitive and do you wish you had set it
to the narrower tuning width?

Thanks.
Joe
