My STEC 20 is slaved can be slaved to my #1 VOR or to my Loran. It has front
panel selection of high and low sensitivity modes. Normally, for VOR's you'd
use the low sensitivity mode to minimize the manuevering to stay on a scalloped
signal. It flies a VOR radial just fine, no obvious hunting. It is a single
axis autopilot.

Hmm. I thought 3-axis was altitude-hold? Whatever, all mine does is hold
the wings level, and follow the bug...

Thanks for the tips! I'd be interested to hear from folks who have these
things -- do they hunt all over, or can that be damped?
