[Elecraft] V3.19

[N2TK]

Yep, same problem here with DXBase. Whenever I hit a callout and the mode is
different than where the K3 is at, the offset comes into play whether I am
going to SSB or CW. Once I am in a mode, say CW and I select another callout
everything is fine.  

If I double click a callout when switching modes everything is fine. 

This  all happens only if the "Auto CW VFO offset on mode change" is on.

Not a big problem once you get used to it.

73,
N2TK, Tony

It's because clicking on the spot results in (at least) two actions:

1) Set the radio frequency to 50.125

2) Set the radio mode to SSB

Unfortunately the second step invokes the CW offset adjustment, and
leaves you <pitch>Hz off where you wanted to be.

If your software set the mode before setting the frequency, it should
work as you expect.

I had the same problem, using the DXLabs Suite.
