direct frequency entry

As a blind k3 op, direct frequency entry is essential to me.

Most of the time, entering to the khz is fine for what I do but there are
occasions, like setting up 60 meter frequencies in memory, when I'd like to
be able to punch in the last 2 digits as well. the default seems to allow
me to enter only to the khz. Any way to change this? 73, Lou WA3MIX

Re: direct frequency entry

I think this depends upon the setting of course or fine - but I haven't tried it

Re: direct frequency entry

Even on FINE setting I get beeped trying to enter a fourth number
after the decimal point using FREQ ENTER. There is no problem,
however sending a frequency from the computer or a memory. Elecraft
will need to comment on this.

I've only implemented kHz frequency entry. Hz is still on my list.
