Nope - didn’t get that far in the manual. I was just too excited to read any more.
Looks like those parts address my question pretty well. Thank-you much Don.

It doesn’t matter where I tune in the band. If I adjust the scale, the signals stay at the +/- point of about 19khz. They appear stronger than any other signal in the display.
