That feature seems to be a common characteristic of Japanese manuals. I
repaired a Kenwood 440 for a friend. Looked all over for instructions of
how to set up one of the oscillators. Not mentioned in the index or
anywhere in the text. Appeared as a note on the schematic. Only took a
couple of extra hours to find it. Same manual lists every metric screw, nut
and washer in painful detail. Why?

After re-reading the manual (and an hour or two of net surfing) it turns
out the reference frequency is tweakable via the TT remote command set.
More than ample adjustment to get it spot on.


(...I really have to learn to not read manuals when I'm over-tired. It
was there in a table. No reference to the feature in the manual, but it
was listed as a command none the less...)

Thanks to all who read my original post.

Hi George,

This was also an American specialty from the likes of Intel in the
late seventies. If there was any important feature deserving mention,
such was done "somewhere" - once.
