Hi all, sorry if I've caused or added any confusion.  I appreciate that the 
sidetone pitch is front panel adjustable, and we're told that the TX offset 
tracks that (sorry I'd forgotten that, I need to check the manual).

The point I intended to make was that when our club bought its used Omni6+, 
the CW netting (offset) was way out of line with the sidetone pitch (from 
memory worse than 500Hz off).  This was corrected by adjustment of a trimmer 
capacitor (on the TX AF board, top rear of rig).

Regarding filter pitch, I find there is plenty of adjustment to listen at a 
low pitch if desired, by adjustment of the PBT.  We did have one of the 
specially made low pitch filters, but it would not cascade with the standard 
offset filters.
