I owned quite a few TS-940's and TS-950's over the years. If you read
the manual (TS-950sdx, page 36, top left column), it states the
frequency displayed is the SPACE frequency. The manual is wrong. All the
Kenwood's I owned displayed the MARK frequency.
Joe W4TV and I exchanged a few emails about this. I did additional
testing using the WWV carrier as a reference. The radios in fact were
displaying the MARK frequency on their dial. The Kenwood manual was
never corrected, as far as I know.
