Pete, LP-Pan does not use an 8125 KHz crystal to prevent the oscillator leakage from getting back into the K3 IF strip and to offset the "DC spike" from many sound cards. The crystal used divides down to approximately 8131.6 KHz which results in the audio frequency being shifted by -6150 Hz (+/

LP-Pan (except for very early models) offsets the IF by 6kHz, to move any center-spikes introduced by audio interfaces out of the way. The same offset applies to all bands, except on 6m, you need to swap I/Q (there's an option in CW Skimmer for that) and make the offset positive instead of negative

Mine does this as well, if there's a way to disable it that would be neat. I'm not sure if it's tied to some function that can be disabled or not, but it stands out a bit when you're operating in the dark. Not a big deal by any means, it's only really noticeable to me when my eyes are dark-adapted.
