My FT=290 is slightly off frequency on TX, it is about 4Khz lower than
the display frequency but the RX is spot on display frequency so I have
to operate with the clarifier switched on to be able to resolve the

I've got a MkII here with a similar problem, although it's not as
severe... about 600~800Hz off from the actual frequency. I'm guessing
it could be the age of the reference crystals having an impact (these
are frequency synthesised rigs), but without ripping the thing apart,
I'm not sure.

1kHz isn't enough to bother me... just use the frequency display as a
guide then tune around until you get the target station spot on. 4kHz
on the other hand, would be quite irritating.
