I ran an on-air test with Jim and found that when using my Omni VI+, transmitting on 14.052.50, Jim was receiving me at 14.053.11 on his Omni 6. When he transmits, I receive him just fine if I engage the RIT and listen up 500 Hz, which just about coincides with what his rig is telling him his transmit frequency is. So, it seems that when he hears a CQ and answers it, he is actually about 500 Hz higher in frequency than the guy he is hearing. I hope this helps diagnose his problem. I'm not savvy enough to know the fix, other than temporarily engage the RIT or XIT and preset that 500 Hz difference.
