That's a real problem for "Channelized Hams", if your signal isn't on X.000 or, X.500 hertz, they cry about your radio is "Off Frequency"; No, my transmitter is on what frequency it is on and your receiver isn't. A symptom of your radio's receiver frequency being tied to your transmitter frequency.

Well I don't do a lot of 6 meters. So channelization is foreign to me except for being a kid on CB.
