So far as the audio passband one hears, the RIT is no different than the main tuning knob. If one is mainly hearing 2150 to 2450 with a 300 hz filter, and you are trying to receive 2125 and 2295 changing the RIT to get those tones will still put the 2100 on the filter skirts. Only the shift will move the heard audio passband down to center around the standard tones. On a run frequency, one usually locks the TX frequency, and adjusts shift/width of passband for the "regular" listening width and centering, saving RIT for listening only for temporary excursions to someone who calls really high or low. Contest programs can reset RIT when a QSO is logged. They will not change shift. RIT is expected to be temporary per QSO. Shift is considered a manual adjustment that the program leaves alone. 73, Guy. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
