Hi Al,
Hi Jim,

This may be true for Baofeng radios.

But is not true for Alinco DJ-V57. In memory mode, the frequency is corrected 
to the nearest STEP.
It took me some time to realize that the emitted frequency was not the one 
shown on the display.

> STEP is only used in VFO mode. It is like a mask when entering a
> frequency into the VFO to help reduce entry errors. It is also the
> change in frequency when scanning the VFO. You can get by just using a
> STEP of 5.0 KHz for this purpose. STEP is unused and unneeded when
> programming memories into the radio with CHIRP.

Best regards,
Bruno
