[time-nuts] Naive question on WWW stations

You don't normally listen to a CW signal at zero beat, so many receivers
apply a BFO offset to make the CW tone audible at a comfortable frequency.
This is usually more like 800 Hz than 4 kHz, though, so you could still have
a calibration error somewhere.
