[Elecraft] Frequency Tracking

[Richard]

At the top of page 17 of the KAT500 manual are instructions for employing Frequency Tracking with a K3s/KAT500 combination. Great idea. Excellent time saver.

At the bottom of page 16 are four bullets prescribing the segment sizes for the various bands.

Since most 6-meter SSB activity around here usually runs from about 50.100 to about 50.300, it seems to me that 200 kHz segments for six meters are way too wide.

Would it impair Frequency Tracking if I used 10kHz segments for six meters?

And generally speaking, can the size of the segments on any band be varied without causing Frequency Tracking a problem?

Thanks.
