FWIW... In rev-3.57 my K3 was typically locking 5-6 Hz above the zero beat carrier. That seems to have been cut in half with this revision, now locking 2-3 Hz above carrier.
All India Radio carrier at 9869.986 KHz locks in AM Sync at .988-.989. (All India Radio transmitters seem to be consistently about 15 Hz low.) When I was a kid I dreamed of having a SW receiver that was accurate to within 5 KHz, heheh.... Didn't have any problems with loading the F/W. 73, Drew AF2Z Some SWBC stations can be pretty far off freq. All India Radio is consistently about 10 or 12 Hz low.
