Perhaps a silly suggestion, but a mistake I have made more than once...:-)
The RA1772 in CW mode displays a frequency 1kHz lower than the actual
receive frequency - so to receive SAQ you have to tune the RA1772 to
16.2kHz. If the display reads 17.2k, you will be receiving the data sigs
around 18.3kHz.

Jim,
yes i made a stupid mistake, i usually use TS-940 in CW so i forgot that
RA1772 use only SSB and the display shows the zero hertz beat frequency.
I walked around a couple of kilohertz, but probably i was too fast and
impatient.
Thanks for info, '73 Valerio IK5ZPV
