I would agree with Tommy,   some small RIT would be helpful.

It isn't only at 60 wpm that you notice some choppiness,  but anything over 
30 wpm makes a difference in sending without the QRQ being on.  For some 
reason this is more evident when using KB>

However,  in a three way QSO where only one station is off frequency, it 
seems to work out OK as I have to turn RIT off to copy the station on my 
frequency.  It depends which way the order of TX occurs.
