David,

I concede on that, and yes, warmup drift is normal.  I erred in using 
JT65 as the example, it just requires frequency stability (which the K2 
can do after warmup).  What I really intended are a few modern data 
modes that I understand must be 'netted' to a specific frequency, down 
to the single digit Hz.
The 20 Hz DAC steps in the K2 BFO may not allow that.
