There is the possibility (or is it probability that the station has 
tuned someone in with AFC on but NET off. This could easily make the 
difference more than 10Hz. On S&P turn AFC off and NET on. N1MM can be 
set to do this automatically. When running set AFC on and NET off. It is 
a good idea if RIT may be used in RUN to set N1MM to reset RIT to zero 
when the TU.... macro is run. I also do this for my CQ macro.
