When you think about it, in an absolute sense, you are communicating on the 
same frequency. The dial readings on the rigs my not agree, just as using a 
1200/1400 tone pair on USB only tends to distort what appears to be the
operating frequency.

I recall a number of years ago there was a 'center-frequency' concept 
introduced to define the 'frequency of data exchange'. Of course there is an 
offset -- and some rigs can have their display output adjusted.

Just a thought!
