The frequency can be precisely specified also by entering a value into the additional
(red) edit box.
TIP: The frequency is being entered in Hz units. If, however, the letter “M”

follows numeric value, it is considered to be a kHz value.
Clicking “Zoom in” button decreases displayed frequency range, clicking “Zoom out”
increases displayed frequency range and clicking “Zoom away” sets displayed
frequency range to maximum.
