The Neurosis of the digital age. Admittedly people have their
preferences, and though I am fond of digital displays, I too find it much
more enjoyable to use analog tuning when searching the dial for
frequencies.

Regards

I have two very good digital tuning shortwave radios, one with
synchronous sideband, but I find myself choosing to play with and
listen to the little analog tuning portable I have most of the time. I
like to be able to scan the bands by hand with the dial and to see
where I am. When I let the digital do this automatically, it just
doesn't seem the same. I just don't derive the same pleasure from the
digital tuning, and I have no plans to ever be a part of digital
radio.

Anyone else feel like that? Maybe it's because my first shortwave was
in the 1960's.
