Yes, but I have seen people argue that we should always post the actual frequency of the station we are receiving. So, I assume that we park our rigs on 14070 exactly and , assuming you 1500 hz sweet spot, add the hz to the frequency. Would we announce the spot as 140715 If I got my decimal places correct) or 14070 and place 1500 Hz in the comment line of the spot? (assuming the signal was actually at 1500 Hz)

The frequency spotted should equate to the freq that the users will show on their waterfall, not that shown on their rig. For instance I have seen far too many PSK spots for 14.070 and when I click on them, my "send" arrow on the waterfall sits right on that freq, and there is nothing there on the sound card. Its usually up about 1500 kc up in my instance, since that is where the sound card "sweet spot" is. Means the user then has to hunt around, and if there are a couple dozen stations running, click on several spots to find the actual station. Most people do this right, but some dont realize what is happening, and continue to spot the rigs freq, and other spot the rigs freq and then give an "addition figure" on the sound card. -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
