John,
If you go through the whole alignment procedure for the K2 Dial
Calibration, those shifts will go away. If they get smaller but do not
disappear, then just do it over again.
It is important for you to do the entire procedure each time - set the 4
MHz reference oscillator, then run CAL PLL, then 'change' *each* BFO
setting. If your BFOs are set to properly position the passbands, you
do not actually have to alter the BFO setting, but you do have to make
the firmware think it has been changed - move the BFO frequency a small
bit and then move it back to where it was so the processor will think it
has been changed and it will write new DAC values into the EEPROM. You
must do that for each BFO separately.
If you are within 20 Hz of 10 MHz WWV, that is close to the limit of the
DAC resolution, and you may not be able to get it any closer than that -
but you can try for 10 Hz if you have enough patience.
73,
Don W3FPR
