Quirks, known bugs, and other notes.
====================================

$Id: README.ft890,v 1.1 2003-04-05 04:13:52 n0nb Exp $

In this document I'll try to describe the behavior of the Yaesu FT-890
transceiver with Hamlib.  Some of these are limitations of the radio
while others are programming trade-offs with Hamlib.

This document is organized by Hamlib function calls and documents observed
behavior with each call.

rig_set_rit
    *   RIG_VFO_* value is respected so the rig VFO may be changed with
        this call.
    *   To "zero" the RIT pass a value > 0 or < 10 with this call.  The 
        digit will be dropped as resolution is 10 Hz minimum and the 
        clarifier offset set to 0 Hz.
        
General notes.
    As with most all Yaesu radios the radio must be polled by the application
    for status updates, i.e. no transceive mode in CAT.
