You're correct, the tone is on 21072 kHz.

I've been testing the rcvr at night, which, duh, obviously will produce
weak signals on 15M.  Today I compared the K1 rcvr to a general coverage
rcvr on 21 MHz and both rcvrs gave the approximate same signal
strengths.  So, no problems.

Thanks for your help.
