It refers to the adjustment steps you will proceed thru as you adjust
the scanwidth. For example, if your scan width was set to 1MHz, the
settings that you would run thru as you advance the control (turn the
knob) would be 2MHz, 5MHz, then 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, etc.
Basically 3 settings per decade of frequency.
