Having played around with various computer tuning
schemes since I built a DDS VFO for my Omni C and
hooked it to a TRS-80, I have to agree that there is
nothing having a real tuning knob. However, I now
operate my Pegasus from two different locations with
different computers and only have the Pod at one
location. The mouse wheel tuning is perfect for the
remote operation.
