[Elecraft] K3S Chirp?

[K9MA]

The quality of OO's varies.  I once got an OO report for out of band 
operation when I was on something like 14,000.4 with a well-calibrated 
K3.  When I contacted the OO and asked how he measured the frequency, he 
said he just tuned his receiver to 13,999.9, and he could hear me.
