I have quite often worked FT8 DXpeditions by observing them on my HDSDR
panadapter and clicking on the appropriate frequency. The rig changes
to the intended frequency, WSJT-X main window display changes to the new
rig frequency, and I make the QSO.
This procedure should report the correct frequency. That's not the
procedure you reported to be "erroneous". You said:
Select 14.074 from frequency pull down - ALL.TXT RX freq 14.074
Tune rig to 14.075 with front panel controls - ALL.TXT RX freq 14.074
...
I also, quite frequently, use the frequency entry keypad on my TS-590S
to change frequency after seeing an FT8 DX spot. Again, all appears to
be normal but it seems the PSKReport and ALL.TXT may be erroneous.
I shall probably turn off PSK reporting as I don't want to send out
misleading reports.
Your choice, but entirely unnecessary. If you want WSJT-X to be fully
aware of your rig's frequency setting, control the rig's frequency
through WSJT-X.
Or, if you choose, contribute suggested and well tested patches to
hamlib and/or WSJT-X code -- or work with someone who can do this with
you, so as to make the system behave as you wish. This is, after all, a
cooperative project. And we necessarily have our working list of
priorities that may be different from yours.
