Hi John, I don't know where you are seeing 50 KHz. The change in VFO when changing from CW to SSB should be what you have set in you CW tone.
Try these two exercises. Exercise Examine what happens when switching between CW and SSB with CW WGHT VFO set to NOR and when set to OFS. * Select CW mode and tune VFO A to some even CW frequency, such as 14.050.000. * Enter the CW WGHT menu and tap the key to select VFO NOR. * Exit the menu and switch between SSB and CW modes. With VFO NOR, VFO A remains constant. * Change to VFO OFS and repeat the experiment.With VFO OFS activated, the display shows 14.050.000 minus your CW pitch Exercise What happens if two stations are using SSB and decide to switch to CW with CW WGHT VFO OFS NOR and activated. With VFO OFS NOR, each station will have to re-tune the other to hear the CW tone. With VFO OFS activated, neither station will have to re-tune. Each station’s VFO will be automatically offset by the pitch amount. If you sometimes operate mixed mode, with you switching to CW and the other station on SSB, it is best to enable VFO OFS so the other station doesn't have to retune you when you switch from SSB to CW. 73, Fred KE7X ________________________________ From: Elecraft <[email protected]> on behalf of stengrevics <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, April 21, 2017 8:52 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] Problem Setting CW Offset to Zero Reading KE7X's manual, I should be able to set the offset to zero by selecting CW WGHT from the CONFIG menu and then tapping the 5 button to select VFO nor. But, this procedure leaves the offset at around 50 KHz. Am I interpreting Fred's instructions incorrectly?
