[WriteLog] CW transmit FREQUENCY from radio

Gilles,

I have my ini file set to CW_XMIT_FREQ=700 too.  To get the IC-7600 closer 
to this setting do the following.  Press the EXIT/SET button to get to a 
clear screen on the radio.  Now press and hold the FILTER button for 2 
seconds and a graph will open on screen showing your filter center frequency 
and the bandwidth skirts for the selected filter.  Turn the CW PITCH knob a 
bit until the center frequency number equals 700.  Now push the FILTER 
button again to check the settings on the next filter.  Again, change the CW 
PITCH to 700 Hz.  Do the same for the third filter.  When all have 700 Hz as 
the center frequency push the EXIT/SET button go get back to the main 
screen.  You can now display the SCOPE or anything else you want.

Now when I transmit CW the WriteLog CW Receiver shows a slight offset on the 
transmit frequency.  By clicking on the signal with the mouse the yellow 
vertical line changes position and the Rx frequency shows 674, quite a bit 
closer to the 700 Hz setting in the ini file and CW Pitch settings.  For me 
this is not a problem.

73,

With my icom-ic 7600 the xmit freq is 600 hz tone and the receive freq tone
(if the cw pitch button is in the center position ) is about 750 hz so there
is an offset of 200 hz.

If I modify the cw pitch evrething change with the same offset.

I tried to modify the ini file to CW_XMIT_FREQ=700 to have a 100 hz instead
but it does'nt change.

Can we change the radio TRX freq from Writelog or in the radio ? on my
system it seems not to work.

What is the most popular CW offset?
