Optionally install a 10K or 100K linear potentiometer on the front panel and connect the slider to pin A6 (connector P1, blue wire). Tip: If you also install the [10-turn tuning pot](#10-turn-tuning-pot), then you can re-use the original 1-turn pot for the PBT control.
Turning this pot will shift the BFO frequency in RX mode, which acts as a Passband Tuning (PBT) control. Although the principle is different, the behaviour is somewhat similar to 'IF-shift' as seen on many commercial rigs.
Passband Tuning is disabled by default, go to the SETTINGS menu to [enable this function](#passband-tuning).

Note: Do not enable PBT when the PBT pot is not installed, as this will lead to random readings from the Arduino's analog input!

The default frequency span of the standard supplied 1-turn tuning pot is only 50 kHz.
If you install a 10-turn pot instead you can extend the span for full 40m band coverage.
