Program search of the new 8.33kHz airband step using the AR5000
The new airband channel step comes into effect in 1999 and 2000 for most of Europe and is to be further extend after
that time.
There is much confusion over the issue of 8.33 kHz, in reality it is not 8.33 but eight-and-one-third. As a third cannot
be expressed in a decimal fashion, a small compound frequency error will occur every third increment. Ideally the end
digits should read '00' '33' '66' '00' but will be display as '00' '33' '66' '99'. In reality, the AR5000 may be programmed
in 8.333 kHz steps to further minimise the compound error, the error is then very small indeed, especially when
considering the sub band is only expected to occupy 132.000 - 134.500 MHz (one Hz every third tuning increment!).
Work around:
If you do not wish to live with a small compound error, it is possible to program three program search banks as a
GROUP (refer to section 12-4 Page 49 onward of the English language operating manual).
