Did you try without the “delays”?
Is it so hard to start wsjt-x and select the 6M frequency in the drop- down box, and then adjust the P3?
And with the full spectrogram from wsjt-x , I don’t pay much attention to the O3.

For specifics, I test the Macro by switching to 28MHz band. After execution, the P3 shows the 28MHz center frequency but the SVGA shows 74Mhz, or thereabouts. - If I change the SPN, the center frequency varies. Suspicious.
