This may have occurred in one of the 23 Hz RTTY contests that happened several 
years ago.

I remember participating but don't remember the details.

Minimum Shift Keying.

45.45 baud MSK looks sufficiently enough like a waveshaped FSK signal with 
22.725 Hz shift to be interoperable between them.

You and I made a QSO using 22.725 Hz shift a couple of years ago, for precisely 
the the same reason -- to test narrow shifts --
right after the 60m band was opened up for RTTY.  But we'd made the QSO on 20m.
