You guys just answered a question I have had -- how do some guys, not too
many but one or two, answer my CQ's W-A-Y off frequency.. Like in this day
and age of digital !! Yea - 40 years ago it was easy to do !
I run FSK, so they must be running AFSK or on the wrong sideband or both
???
They are so far off the only reason I look for them is the timing of the
off
freq signal - I figure it's got to be a reply and sure enough, there they
are. One day I suspect I'll run out of RIT !

Okay try this one, I'm running AFSK and all my spots will be the Mark
frequency, that should about cover it. I have problems with the same
thing
Gary and my biggest complaint are the guys running USB or Digi-U AFSK and
spotting a frequency somewhere +/- 2khz of right. The skimmers will
depend
on having the rig offset set properly just like anything else.

The same frequency comment forces a comment from me.
What frequencies are being used in spots from the new RTTY skimmers? Are
they the actual FSK frequency or the frequency readout from a radio
running
AFSK? I get so tired of finally seeing myself spotted on the wrong
frequency because the chap making the spot is running AFSK and neglects
to
compensate his dial readout frequency for where I am actually
transmitting.
