Default bandspread tuning tutorial?

See if Radio Shack (or some such stores) sell wireless frequency
counters.You can use them (wirelessy) with any radios,,, providing they
count low enough and or high enough.

Real Radios are the old tube type analog Radios.They have knobs and
analog dials on them.They DX much better than anything else.The have
character and chirisma that NO digital/transistor so-called ''radio''
can ever touch.

I'm at a loss as to why in the age of digital radios one would buy an
analog radio only to go to the added expense of a digital display. Why
don't you enjoy the 160 for what it is and not try to make it something
that it can never become. We all enjoy the point and click accuracy
and speed of keypads and up/down tuning keys on digital radios. The
160 will never be able to come close to competing with that. Just use
the 160 radio in the way it was designed: Scanning the bands by
listening as much as glancing at the analog scales.

Why don't you just not worry about it & answer the question of you can, and
if not just let me do what I want to do?

This long winded exercise of reading about "Lisa" finding a radio on
Ebay, gushing about it having bandspread tuning, then whining about it
having bandspread tuning, then wanting to sell it because "she" has
enough digital radios, then deciding to keep it because she wants to
make it like all the other digital radios is beyond silly and wearing
thin.

really it just seems like the guy (a bit different that is seems to be
a gal inthis case) that always has to the latest wizzbag radio (and
that can be be nice to be around if they also have the budget to keep
buying them) and then fools with awhile then more or discards them
(glaning around the shack at a few radios that were the very latest in
wizzband)

in that lisa hardly seem anything but slightly novel
