[R-390] Freq. Readout

[jlap1939@yahoo.com]

Friends,

Had 2 notes asking about reading the 390 series dial
correctly, so I assume a few don't see how it is
actually marked, (and maybe don't want to ask in
public..(???))

By the units dial member to the right you will see a
tiny white mark on the finger...Your units member is
cal. in 200 Hz segments..(Four marks, then the next
Khz ....=5 spaces total, between Khz numbers, which is
200 Hz. total for each space). As said, I can easily
stay within less than a hundred Hz to perhaps 200 Hz,
any kind of reception. Ex: For 3898.5, put your marker
exactly between the second short line, and the third
short line...between 3898 and 3899...(or exac. in the
middle).

Another Question asked me (why dum ole me?)is:

Why do some people use (example)... 3898.5  (Khz) 
Others use... 3.8985                        (Mhz)
Yet Others... 3.898.5                       (???)

???? Surely the last is not really proper..(This last
question from me...)  Someone please answer for my
correspondants..and me..

I await comments with "baited" breath...(I ate
spagetti with a lot of garlic bread for the evening
meal..(uhh....the first one....)

Regards,  John   (JLAP)
