[Elecraft] [KX1] Alignment Question

I took my XG3 to a friend who had a very expensive service monitor.   To all of our surprise,  the XG3 was only a few Hz off up to about 15m and then up past 6M it was still < 10hz off.   This was surprising!  What a great tool.

The reason I checked it was I was seeing an issue with my KX1 that I have never solved.   Hooking up the KX1 to the same service monitor,  I noticed that my KX1 is acceptably aligned within +/-10hz on 80m, 30m, & 20m.   On 40m, it is ~685hz above the dialed frequency.    Does anyone have any tips on adjusting just 40m?   It seems the calibration procedure would impact all bands.   685hz is pretty noticeable, or am I just expecting too much?

Thx
