Tom,
I'm not a cw operator, but I always thought if you match the cw signals tome
frequency to the frequency of your keying sidetone, that would zero beat the
transmitter.

Subject: How To Zero Beat when in CW ModeWith TS590
Hi,all.
This quiry is in response to Danny's recently-posted article on zero beating
when in CW mode.
Perhaps my ignorance is showing here, but I always thought modern
transceivers like the TS590 automatically zero-beat your frequency with that
of the other station, so long as your RIT and XIT were turned off.
I just checked my TS590, and found that the tone frequency of stations I
listened to varied slightly when switching from CW to CW reverse. I could
manually get the tone frequencies to match, but the match disappeared as
soon as I changed frequencies.
Is there anything I can do to my 590 to be sure I'm always zero beating the
other station, without having to go through the manual adjustment process
all the time?
I know we could get really anal about this, but I do think the article sent
by Danny does have a good point about the importance of getting as close to
the other station's frequency as possible, in order to preserve band width.
