[Elecraft] [KX3] Need Advice - Xmt & Rcv frequencies differ but RIT turned off

I am guessing I have mis-set some menu-settable parameter and I am looking
for advice as to which one I might have mis-set so I can solve the following
problem:

I am finding that I must set my KX3 receive a few hundred hertz higher than
the actual frequency on which a station says he is transmitting so that I
achieve natural sounding voice on receive. When I do that, the other station
says my voice pitch is too low. ( So he corrects, then I correct, and we
chase one another up the band. )
The same behavior occurs on CW operation.

The error seems to increase with operating frequency as shown in the
following table:

In LSB receive WWV 05.0 megahertz carrier zero beats at approximately 05.000
133
In LSB receive CHU 7.335 megahertz carrier zero beats at approximately
07.335 190
In LSB receive WWV 10.0 megahertz carrier zero beats at approximately 10.000
250
In LSB receive WWV 15.0 megahertz carrier zero beats at approximately 15.000
384

Thanks for any suggestions; for now I am back to studying the operator's
manual :)
