I want to change the step rate between frequencies on my BC125AT, but not sure if you can. I want to try and tune in some Russian cubesats that transmit at 435.29 and 435.89 mhz, but the BC125AT can't tune that specific value, the closest I can get is 435.8937 mhz for example. I'm in Canada, so it has what I assume is North American frequency spacing.

Can you even do such a thing on the 125AT? I've only seen videos on the XLT, which don't seem to match the menus on the 125AT.

Not entirely relevant but with the UBC125XLT, UBC126AT and AE125H (UBC125AT derivatives) you can change the step value for the various frequency bands. Supported step values in kHz are: 5.00, 6.26, 8.33, 10.0 and 12.5. You can also change the modulation: AM and FM (narrow no wide FM).
