As a younger person (25 in July), I must say that I actually have to
agree with the fact that it's the knobs that make SWL fun. There's
just a sort of thrill of the hunt you get when you're slowly turning
through a band "stalking" a signal and there's the thrill of
"conquest" once you've pulled something in. If I had a newer radio
where you could just punch in a frequency, I don't think I would
listen NEARLY as often as I do.

Up and Down buttons can be used in this way, but they're not as good.
I do a fair but of tuning around with my Sony ICF-SW7600G which can step up
and down the HF bands in 1kHz or 5kHz steps.
