Hi Dany. This scared me a little bit too until I figured out what it was
for.

This is not just for expeditions. It's for everyone to use whose rig can
handle it.

Your TX frequency will still be as indicated on the FT8 screen. The
software will raise the audio tone frequency by the same amount that it
drops your VFO B so that your tone is in the right place. By doing this,
the audio tone frequency is kept high enough that its harmonics will be out
of your FT8 passband. This is good -- it helps keep the band clean.

See section 4.2 in the wsjt-x user guide.
