Hello, folks!
I did a small improvement on the Dash-7 radio gauge to allow decimal fractions to be dialed in the ADF radio (such as 313.5). A minor thing, but quite necessary if you fly this bird by radios only. I'm sharing the modified gauge file in case anyone else finds it useful for their adventures. Simply copy the file into your flight simulator's "Gauges" folder, overwriting the old one. The new gauge has an additional hot-spot cilck zone on the ADF radio stack on the right half of the right-hand knob which triggers the decimal fraction increase (no decrease available, numbers only go up on the ADF, which is done for consistency with how the rest of the panel is programmed).
If you're paranoid about downloading external files, but still want to make the modification, poke me and I'll talk you through it, it's a fairly simple XML change.
Here goes:
