That sounds interesting. Can you explain how it works? I thought the 
reason the two receivers are always off frequency by some small amount 
is that they use different PLL schemes, with different minimum 
resolution step sizes. How can software change that? Perhaps I've got it 
all wrong.

Even with different step sizes, at some frequencies the two receivers 
might be on exactly the same frequency. Maybe the N4PY software can be 
operated so that only these particular frequencies can be tuned?
