Fine Tuning
The Fine Tune knob makes it possible to finely adjust the frequency in
0.5 kHz steps.
WiNRADiO G3 SERIES Receiver Tuning Knob
To use the tuning knob, position the mouse cursor over the knob (the cursor
will turn into a curved double ended arrow) and click on either the left or right
mouse button. If the cursor is on the top half of the knob, the left button will
decrease the frequency, and the right button will increase the frequency. If
the cursor is in the lower half, the opposite will occur (and the cursor will
invert its shape).
Using the keyboard only, the frequency can be similarly adjusted using the
up/down
cursor keys.
To speed up tuning, the step size can be increased ten or one hundred
times by holding the
Shift
or
Ctrl
keys respectively, while clicking the tuning
knob with mouse button or using the
up/down
keyboard keys. This is a
very convenient feature if you wish to tune quickly across a frequency range:
hold the mouse button and accelerate the movement by pressing the
Shift
or
Ctrl
keys. On the other hand, pressing the
Alt
key will reduce the tuning
step ten times (to 50 Hz).
