Hi!
Offset issue resolved: Mostly, it was an operator error! (ME!).
Well, the rig seems to be operating within calibration. While I have a
question or two (I posed them to Don), it looks like the mystery is
fixed... for now!
Thanks for all the comments.
Regards,

Hi,
First, FYI: this is cross-posted to the Elecraft reflector and the
SKCC group.
I "played" on the SS the weekend. Attained 63 contacts QRP (KX-1). I
was mostly giving out points as I probably won't submit my log... But,
anyway...
While attempting to respond to a station, I was using a spectrum
program so I knew I was on the calling stations frequency (in this case,
I believe the KX-1 uses a 600 Hz offset - I've tested it with another
radio and it seems correct). So, here's the "strange" part: If I zero
beat the calling station, there was about a 1 in 10 chance they'd hear
me! If, on-the-other-paw, I tuned to about 450 or 500 Hz, they seemed to
hear me okay! And this included stations who were answering on their
exact frequency! I first noted this when calling one station, but heard
my call at about a 100 Hz tone (which meant my sig was 500 Hz below
him). I thought, "Huh?" Well, it works out well, because the bandwidth
filters seem centered on about 450 Hz when at it's narrowest, but the
question is, why was this? I mean I fully expected stations to be
listening on their own frequency first, then offsets. Or, am I missing
something? {'-)
