It would be interesting to really understand what's going on.  It seems
like the "RFM69 frequencies" are what is programmed into the
transmitter, and I wonder if that is the intended transmit frequency or
if there is some IF involved.  It would be interesting to also sniff the
RFM69 receive chip frequencies at the console.

And, to measure the actual frequencies with test equipment, or something
that can be relied upon to be reaosnably accurate because of
calibration.

When I saw the formula above, I suspected a 40 MHz IF and was suspicious
of the 1.048ish factor.  But I wonder what that would look like if it
were fit with different assumptions about the base formula.

Overall, something seems wrong in code somewhere, as a change of 12 kHz
offset to a 35 kHz offset over 500 kHz does not seem plausible.

I'll try to run this and see if I can spot anything.
