Some questions about the 737NG MCP

I am sorry about asking such a lengthy question, but I am still without access to a 737NG flight deck since September 11th took away some of our freedoms.

Some questions about the 737NG MCP

1. The course control knob increments the course LCD in 1 degree steps. How many steps dose the course display change with one full turn of the course knob.

1a Is the course control's knob rotation dentented?

2. The speed control increments the IAS/Mach LCD in 1 knot steps. How many steps dose the display change with one full turn of the speed knob.

2a. With c/o pushed and Mach now displaying in the IAS/Mach LCD the speed control increments in .01 Mach steps on the IAS/Mach LCD, How many steps dose the display change with one full turn of the speed knob.

2b Is the speed control's knob rotation dentented?

3. The heading control increments the heading LCD in 1 degree steps. How many steps dose the display change with one full turn of the heading knob.
