Don
thanks for your quick reply.
May be I did'nt get something.
To avoid mistakes, I adjusted the sidetone pitch to 600hz than I applied 
exactly the manual procedure setting the suggested filter bandwiths and bfo 
values. Actuallly the receiver frequency is fine centered for all filters.
If the manual suggested values  don't work well in tx mode, which is the 
right value to apply?
And, if I change again the bfo values, does the rx freq shift again?
