I'd say you have RX SHFT set to "nor" instead of "8.0". If you set your 
sidetone to 550Hz, and 8kHz shift is not enabled, then you'll pick up the image 
2 * 550 Hz = 1.1 kHz away, which is what you are reporting.

Remember that RX SHFT is a "per-band" setting, so you need to enable it 
separately for each band.
