Kieth, From the number of 'off zero-beat QSOs I hear on the air, I know you are not alone. Some folks do have very good pitch recognition, but others (like me) have a certified 'tin ear'. Unfortunately, those with good pitch recognition have no concept of what it is like for folks like me. I have relied on Spectrogram to help me with the pitch for a long time.
