Exactly. Everybody has their own preference for the audio pitch. Some like
it higher and some lower. Before the days of accurate frequency read-outs
nobody was too concerned about it. When I am net control I transmit on
VFO-B and use VFO-A to freely move about on the RX frequency. I find that
easier than using the RIT. And Net-Control is ALWAYS on frequency hi..hi..

Really? I mean really?
Heck, I’ve been told countless times I’m off frequency. My hearing is shot
so i tend to tune SSB in a bit higher pitch than normal.
“Ah… WB8VGE, you’re 27 hertz too low.
Really?
Yes!
(Me) Does that rig of yours have a RIT?
(Him) I’ll have you know this is the newest generation transceiver on the
market. It has sixteen VFOs, and eight RITs.
(Me) Then how about turning one on?

But,
isn't it better to Know for Sure?*
