You're right about the knob. I have been tempted to try the Sony for

years
but I know that, due to it not having a tuning knob, I would not use

it.

A tuning knob would be a neat mod' for the '7600'. Maybe the tuning knob
encoder system from the '2010' could be adapted to the '7600'.

I find that using the 7600gr without a tuning knob is simple enough, I might
concede to this downside of the 7600gr if it was difficult, but I find it
very simple to use the arrow keys and am getting to actually prefer the keys
to the tuning knob the more I use it.

I wish the 7600GR had a knob and didn't mute when bandscanning. I like it
otherwise.

You need a Super909 - no muting.

I have a stock 909 and I'm not all that crazy about it. No muting wouldn't
make it better.
