Locking the Drag&Tune to Even Increments

Hi All-

Well, as a Noob, I'm going to be posting some questions I think everyone will be interested in knowing the answers to.

I see that tuning around by dragging the display with the mouse - moves in frequency increments dictated by level of zoom
that your display is in. That makes sense. The issue is that most stations are using exact frequencies these days and it is impossible
to land on any even frequency in any level of zoom with drag and click tuning. I have to use the mouse wheel to move it to an even
frequency. Only a little hassle, but it would sure be great to be able to link the tuning rate setting to the Drag & Click tuning as well.

Is there a way?

Thanks-
Bob-AB5N

It does not work on drag and tune, but for click to tune you can set Snap Click Tune under General > Options to see if that helps.

BTW, I did see your video, pretty good. You did miss another cool feature, the Spots function to overlay DX Spots on the screen.

Thanks Gary--

Indeed the click to tune mode with the option turned on does lock it to the selected tuning increment.

I just did not see the DX Cluster Spotting option. Just turned it on!

Keep asking questions Bob!-----Its good for all of us! Also big thanks for the great video you made.
Being a Flex fan for 10 years, I finely made to jump to the Anan and so far am glad I did. I was severely beaten by the community because I asked for a option to change the screen color (overall, I just got board of looking at the same old screen day after day).
I high ranking gentleman thinks the Anan and its software are "vaporware" and suggested for all to "stay away from it".
I still have the 3000 and Darrin's (KE9NS) PowerSDR version is truly amazing.
