Okay try this one, I'm running AFSK and all my spots will be the
Mark frequency, that should about cover it.  I have problems with the
same thing Gary and my biggest complaint are the guys running
USB or Digi-U AFSK and spotting a frequency somewhere +/- 2khz
of right.  The skimmers will depend on having the rig offset set
properly just like anything else.

73,
