Rolf,
Is the frequency actually different in LSB or USB mode, or only for CW? CW should offset the frequency by the sidetone pitch value. If your K2 filters and BFOs are aligned properly, you should receive on the same frequency as the carrier transmit frequency in SSB mode, for CW mode, the dial display is shifted by the frequency that you have selected for the sidetone pitch. -- Note that the BFO for FL1 is always used for transmit, so if your filters are not all set for the same bandpass-center pitch, you will create a frequency offset. If you would like more detail information, check out the K2 Dial Calibration article on my website www.qsl.net/w3fpr. 73, Don W3FPR ----- Original Message ----- From: "roffe" <[hidden email]> To: <[hidden email]> Sent: Thursday, August 05, 2004 4:48 PM Subject: [Elecraft] diff tx anf rec > Why does my K2 have diffrent tx freq than rec freq ????? > > no split fuinction > > regards Rolf > _______________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Post to: [hidden email] > You must be a subscriber to post to the list. > Subscriber Info (Addr.

If you zero beat an incoming CW signal to the SPOT tone, your transmit and
receive should be on the same frequency UNLESS: 1 - You have SPLIT enabled (you said it's off so it's one of the following) 2 - You have RIT enabled that causes the receiver to tune independently using the RIT knob. 3 - You have XIT enabled that causes the transmit frequency to shift like RIT. Note that you must match the CW tone to your SPOT tone, not tune the incoming CW signal for true "zero beat" (no audio). The K2 automatically offsets the transmitter by that tone frequency to shift your TX frequency onto the received station's frequency.
