Yeah, can you file this as a bug on the github repo?
I think there is an issue with the CW sidetone frequency (pitch) with the sBitx v2 (running on a DE).
When you first start the sBitx program, the pitch is restored to the last saved value. If you transmit the CW carrier is on the VFO frequency as seen in another receiver and as expected.? If you change the pitch, the CW carrier is now shifted by the amount of the change.? For example, say that the VFO frequency is 3.550 MHz and the pitch on startup is 600 Hz. When transmitting, the CW carrier received by another receiver is at 3.550 MHz as expected. If you change the pitch to 400 Hz, the CW carrier is now 200 Hz lower at 3.549.800. I don't think this is right.
If you then shut down the program and start it up again, the VFO is at 3.550 and the pitch is at 400, but the transmitted carrier is now back at 3.550 MHz. If you change the pitch back to 600, now the transmitted CW carrier is at 3.550.200.
I don't think changing the pitch should change the transmitted CW carrier frequency, it should always be at the VFO frequency. Changing the pitch should only change the pitch of the sidetone and the pitch of a received signal. If the received signal is at the VFO frequency, the received tone should be at the pitch frequency. Changing the pitch should only change the (old analog analogy) BFO offset.
