That's the ones someone sent me the link for.  I ended up doing it a 
little different.  I set the BFO frequencies with a frequency counter 
like the manual says. That was interesting since they seem to interact 
with one another. When I did that, it really jacked up USB. The signal 
sounded like it was barely in the passband of the filter. Adjusting the 
TCXO fixed that.  I ended up using WWV to set the TCXO. Assuming my 
sound card is accurate, it looks like it's about 4 Hertz low on LSB and 
dead on on USB.  Every once in a while the pitch of the tone WWV is 
transmitting will change for a fraction of a second then it goes back 
where it was.  Not sure the cause of that, but I'm going to leave it 
where it is for now.

Thanks everyone for your help.
