Subject: [SoftwareControlledHamRadio] Not Displaying the Frequency....

...When tuning.

The tuning of the T41 ( V12, I2C front panel, I2C encoders ) is
unpleasant. As you tune around, you get tiny blips of sound, interspersed
with long display updates. You basically cannot hear what you're tuning
past.

I just tried commenting out the bit of code that displays the frequency
as you tune. Tuning is much better.
There is still a burst of nasty noise with each encoder *tick*, but it's
short, and you can easily hear what you're tuning past.

Naturally, that's not a real fix. The instant you start tuning, the
frequency display is wrong...and that's just wrong!

What would be a fix? A few things: First of all, we *could* do a timer
thing where we don't bother to display the frequency until we stop tuning.
There was tuning, and now there isn't? Ok, display where we got to. Still
not optimal.

I note that it always updates ALL the digits of the frequency, even those
that haven't changed. It even redisplays the VFO B frequency. Surely it
doesn't need to update all that.

Also - I wonder why on earth the audio pauses or stops or gets discarded
while it writes the display? Surely audio interrupts can continue during
this time....?
