The Omni VI has a 20 MHz reference oscillator (which is divided down to
10 MHz) to which the VFO and the band switching crystal oscillators are
locked. The BFO crystal oscillator is not locked to anything. You can
have the 20 MHz reference dead on frequency and still be off frequency
if the BFO is not adjusted correctly.
