Yep, True dat...

I have been looking for the "system specification" for the CV-2455 on its
AFSK tone +/- frequency accuracy.  It is just L-C circuitry.  This would
also describe the shift "distance" as well.  But so far, I can't find
anything.  As a contemporary system with the GRC-26 for example, I would
expect them to be comparable.  So I don't know how far "off" from the
advertised mark and space tones they can be before garble appears.  This
system spec should also add in the transmitter "carrier" frequency +/- as
well.  So much to learn.....
