It's not the same... Signal Stalker doesn't always lock onto the correct
frequency a transmission is coming in on, nor does it continuous display
incoming frequencies. I've had it pick up signals on frequencies that were
up to +/- 10KHz off of the actual transmit frequency. In the mode I
describe, the scanner shows a varying frequency readout. This is unlike the
Signal Stalker mode which just grabs the signal on whatever frequency,
correct or not, and stays there until the signal is lost. You can get a
more accurate idea of the actual (correct) frequency in the "counter" mode.

And as I said over in A.B.R-S, I don't subscribe the stupid Yahoo! Group, so
I didn't see any posting made by whoever it is that you reference below...
If he found it before me, Good For Him! I posted here because I hadn't seen
anybody else post anything in reference to any sort of Keyboard Hacks.
Credit Is due to myself, as I spent the time (hours mind you) trying out
every combination I could come up with, and cataloging them in my list. They
weren't copied from anywhere or anyone, thank you.

Have a great day!

The pro-83 is advertised as a frequency counter.
