[Elecraft] Using K3 with CW Skimmer

[Pete Smith N4ZR]

I've been experimenting with using the K3 with CW Skimmer to work K1N.  
I'm feeding LP-Pan 2 from the K3's IF, and running CW Skimmer if 
Softrock IF mode.  I'm using Omnirig to read the K3s frequency and 
control it.  This works super well at least down through 15 meters - I 
can see the first 10 KHz of the pileupabove K1N's transmit frequency, 
and see exactly where he last worked someone.


However... I just tried the same technique on 30M, where K1N is 
currently at 10113.1.  I can't see him or his pileup at and above that 
frequency, but if I tune the radio down to 10107.9, ghe appears on the 
waterfall with the expected humongous pileup over the next few KHz 
above.  So now I'm wondering, is the relationship between IF frequency 
and dial frequency perhaps different on the lower bands? Has anyone 
tried this same thing and been able to make it work on 40 and below?
