I'm listening to the 7.040MHz generated by an XG2.  When I have CW
(not R) selected the pitch goes down as I turn up in frequency.

I'll give you the BFO high & low freqs and the marking on the crystal
envelope when I get home in an hour or so.  No KSB2 yet. I'll add it
after the basic rig works.

Thanks for the response.
