Have you tried all the step size choices?

With Pro-Scan I get it to accept as 482.2313, close ehough I am sure. It does the same thing with 5, or 6.25 step size.

Just for laughs, I tried them on my Pro-163 and it took them no problem, no rounding off. Just curious, what specificaly are they used for in the FD? Normal ops? Are they abandoning the VHF stuff or what?
