"It's possible to achieve the same effect with an R7/A and the RV75
remote VFO."
May be why hams didn't buy many...
Kinda like my TS-830...I use the VFO-230 on it to make it rock stable..
The internal VFO in all the hybrid kenwoods have some temp drift. The
VFO-230 makes my 830 think it's got the VFO of a 930... No drift. MK
