We've got 3 things to determine frequency, GB3VHF, John's measurements and
your measurements.
John's measurements involve zero beating to accepted standards, TV carrier
frequencies so we can say that the TV carriers are correct. So we can
deduce that John's measurements of GB3VHF are correct too.
The discrepancy in your measurements will come from your receiver LO
accuracy, which in absolute terms you probably have measured and you'll
also so know its temperature drift etc.
So the only thing we don't know is how accurate the sample clock is in your
PC. It should be 11025kHz for WSJT IIRC, so I would suggest that the source
of the error is in your PC. Software normally has some kind of twiddly bit
to allow you to compensate for soundcard clock errors.
The clocks in my PC are annoyingly different for rx and tx. This means that
for a given mouse click in the tuning window, the rx and tx freqs are not
the same. Grrrr!
