[TenTec] 75 meter problem

I have an interesting problem I'm hoping someone has come across. I have an Omni V.9 and operate mostly CW and a little SSB on 20 meters 
and above.
I checked into a 75 meter net this morning at 3925.00 and found everyone to be at 3924.80. No problem. Then everyone said I was off frequency on the low side. I ended up setting a split and when transmitting at 3925 everyone said I was dead on. So I use the calibration feature and calibrate the receive so everyone else is on 3925. You guessed it....when transmitting simplex on the "new" 3925 I was too low again. Ok. Went up to 17 meters and called CQ and was answered dead on frequency. My contact confirmed I was on 18140....just as I thought.  I'm wondering if its an LSB problem at this point. I've worked a few DX stations in the past couple days on 10 and 15 SSB so I think I'm ok on those bands. Haven't had any luck on 40 this morning but all my CW calls have been answered and the CW is LSB...
Any ideas?
