Thanks, Patrick!

    If I understand this, then, here is what I should expect:

    My sound card calibrates to 48009.37, which is .9998% fast
    I transmit with an audio frequency of 2415 Hz
    I am therefore actually transmitting on 2439 Hz, or .9998% higher 
than indicated

    Does that sound right?

Tnx es 73
