When you do that, every program I've seen so far sets the transmit

OK; that's an important piece of information. I had simply assumed that
the generated audio would be at some fixed frequency.


Digital QSO's normally take place on the same frequency for both sides, so
the transmitter audio offset has to match the receiver audio offset for it
to work.


This is typically done automatically by the software for you. Your
audio will be at the same tone as the receive if you are clicked onto
the receive waterfall, which you would be in order to receive the
station's data. So, no changes in transmitter or software will be needed.
