[Kenwood] 850S problem

Greetings all!
I took the advice of some list members and purchased a used TS-850SAT. It
is the best rig I have ever had! Your advice was right on. However, the
radio has a small problem...
On USB it is off frequency. LSB is correct. I think the disparity is
smaller on low frequency bands and goes up to 150 Hz on 10 meters. This
also shows up when you switch to CW Reverse.
There is very little difference in frequency response between USB and LSB,
so I don't want to do anything to disturb that relationship. And I guess
that, technically, this is within the specified tolerance according to the
manual, and I can perhaps mentally adjust to it and ignore it. But it is
further off than any of my other rigs were.
If anyone has knowledge of an adjustment that will not disturb anything
else, please let me know (I do not have the service manual, or much in the
way of test equipment.)

Tnx & 73,
Paul K4PDM
