Update - I don't understand how or why, but if I set CW Skimmer's "Audio IF" to -6150 Hz, that brings the K3 and CW Skimmer frequency readouts into agreement. There is an explanation of audio IF in the Skimmer help file, but I can't get my brain around it.

I've been experimenting with using the K3 with CW Skimmer to work K1N. I'm feeding LP-Pan 2 from the K3's IF, and running CW Skimmer if Softrock IF mode. I'm using Omnirig to read the K3s frequency and control it. This works super well at least down through 15 meters - I can see the first 10 KHz of the pileupabove K1N's transmit frequency, and see exactly where he last worked someone.


However... I just tried the same technique on 30M, where K1N is currently at 10113.1. I can't see him or his pileup at and above that frequency, but if I tune the radio down to 10107.9, ghe appears on the waterfall with the expected humongous pileup over the next few KHz above. So now I'm wondering, is the relationship between IF frequency and dial frequency perhaps different on the lower bands? Has anyone tried this same thing and been able to make it work on 40 and below?
