Spectrogram is also useful in calibrating the reference oscillator. On
CW, I tuned in WWV using Spectrogram until the 10.0 MHz carrier was
centered over the 600 Hz marker (my sidetone was set to 600 Hz). I
found my display was off by 30 Hz and I was able to easily correct it.
My ears have trouble zero-beating WWV on sideband - if only they'd stop
that incessant ticking while I'm trying to zero-beat (hi hi).
