well, in proceeding of 1994-1995, the author, David Clark said of the AUX-7:

"this highly desirable accessory allevates the need to use the cumbersome
"up/down" pushbuttons..."

he also expressed surprise at how many R7's were sold without it.

I guess it is people like you Mr. Lare that explain that lack of common
sense that he didn't understand.

by the way, you were mentioned in the article.

I thought it was insane tuning the radio without the AUX-7. I still can't
imagine using the R7 daily without it.

Then you lack an imagination.

Simple enough for you?

By the way, you just outed yourself.

I'd have to disagree! While the AUX-7 does make it easier to tune a few
SW
bands, not using one does not amount to 'killing yourself'.

I've used both methods with various R7's.

Mike:
I have a R7 and the AUX-7 to install. Can you help me with how you
wired the diodes for the SWBC bands?

mine was a gilfer SWL special with 1.8, 2.3, 3 , 4, 6 filters

when I got mine I then bought the AUX-7 board and diode programmed
it
for
the SWBC bands. now it is a joy to operate. the few days I had it
without
the board almost drove me crazy.


I'm running the 8, 6, 4, 3 and 2.3 kHz filters in the one I have
here at
present.
