Wes,

The TX and VFO frequencies won't behave any differently with APF  
turned on, if that's what you're asking. They'll still be corrected  
for your sidetone pitch, as always.

APF will behave like a tunable narrow filter superimposed on the  
normal passband. Its initial frequency would match the sidetone pitch,  
but you'll be able to move it around using the shift control.

We're still playing with it.
