What I would say in support of 'Dial' and why I state 500KHz +
1400Hz (and that takes more effort to write) is for those not
familiar with the mode(s).
The other day I was trying to get an Old Timer CW Basher to listen
to my JT9-2 across town. Dial 500 gives a good chance of him hearing
something with his 'elastic VFO' RX, he asked "what frequency are yo
on exactly". Give that information and that is where they want to
put their 'Dial'.

better to use the dial convention ,
Dial, what is that? Where can i find such a thing here? And why do
i
need it???
There is no dial here, and no USB. USB is HF SSB
ready-to-use-equipment-stuff.
When i say i'm transmitting e.g. at 137.44 kHz then this means
that the
center frequency of my JT9 transmission is 137.44 kHz, nothing
else.
This is a very clear information.
Dial, if you like that, you can choose what you like: Use 136.0
kHz
dial USB and you will find me at 1440 Hz. If you prefer 136.1 kHz
dial
then you will find me at 1340 Hz. If you prefer 136.3 kHz dial
then you
will find me at 1140 Hz. But it will always be a signal
generated/received at 137.44 kHz :-)
