For normal FT8 operation most anybody should be able to figure out that 14.07* means 14.074....that's the 20M pulldown value that is closest. There's a lot of utility in reporting the actual tone frequency and very little advantage in the reporting the base band.
The 7Hz offset you note isn't significant but have you tested your transmit freq accuracy? They can be different so where think you are is different from where they see you. I would agree that this calibration offset should be removed from the recorded (logging, ALL.TXT, pskreporter, ADIF output) and reported frequency. PSKReporter uses the displayed rig frequency so if your transverter doesn't match that there's not much we can do. Why are you tuning the transverter and not the rig? Doesn't that work so they stay in sync?

There are situations where the rig frequency display is not correct for various reasons such as the transverter frequency is not adjusted exactly, but is known. Another case is the frequency calibration wsjt-x supports. E.g. my rig shows 14074.007 kHz, when it is correctly at 14074.000 kHz. Not a big deal in FT8 at HF, but on other bands on different modes in weak signal working can make a difference. So that correction should be taken into account in a possible batch. Perhaps as selectable feature. 73, Reino OH3mA _______________________________________________ wsjt-devel mailing list wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel _______________________________________________ wsjt-devel mailing list wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel
