Like I say, the Drake R8B is tempting me. As long as the readout actually
reads the carrier frequency and I don't have to work it out on a peice of
paper everytime I change modes I'm happy. Anyone know about this? It
actually looks nice as well.

It will not read the carrier frequency in CW, you have to know what the offset
is.

A radio I recall that did read the carrier frequency in CW was the Kenwood
R5000.
