Set the parameters and use the rate button,  push go fast, push go slow,
you an set how fast or slow you wish to go.


> About the only thing I like about using my Drake R4C over my K3S is that I can cover a lot of band with a couple of twists of the Drake's tuning knob, at 25KHz per rotation. However, it's tough to clarify SSB at that rate, though it's actually not too fast for CW for me.
