Bob,

I don't see how that shift could be coming from the XV144. Its local oscillator is running on the same frequency during receive and transmit.

I would check the K3 28 MHz output to see if the same thing occurs.

A guess --
It could be a mode thing. If the others are operating with CW in SSB, your K3 should be set similarly. The default for the K3 is for CW to be LSB - if others are operating with CW in USB, that could account for a difference if you are changing modes on the K3.

The offset setting on the K3 is to account for any difference between the actual frequency and the K3 transverter band reading, and is applied to both transmit and receive.

Howdy K3' people:
Made a few contacts on 2m now, SSB & CW.  But everyone is telling me I
am exactly 5kc low !

In CONFIG:xvtr2 I see offset is 0.

I have tried cw-rev too.

Where else do I look for a TX offset .. as I am always on the correct
receiving freq.

thanks
