FYI the problem was solved (and it was operator error!). I had  
activated VAC (rather than just activating it for digital modes)  
since I also use it for cw decoding, etc. The transmit image  
rejection tone generation does not work with VAC enabled, which makes  
sense. So, now all is well!

Thanks to Duffy and Tim in assisting e!
