I'm running a Century/22, and seem to a calibration problem.
I tune in to WWV at 10.000, and am right on the money as to the reading
on the dial. I tune in to ARRL voice broadcast on what sould be 7.290,
but my dial reads 7.284+. A QSO on 40m confirms this (started it all)
with my dial reading 7.111, and the receiving station having me zero-beat
at 7.115. A QSO on 15m, my dial says I'm at 21.097, but the other
station has me zero-beat at 21.105.
Is it possible for calibration to be off by different amounts on
different bands? Is this something that I can correct, or attempt, or
this best left for TenTec?
Any help/advice would be appreciated.
