Just curious....instead of irrational bashing of ARRL (which looks after ALL ham radio interests, including minor niche groups like sat operators) , why can't the answer simply be to adjust either the up or down frequency? The 'computer control' has nothing to do with it, no?

The ARRL can't even get frequencies correct so it's no surprise they are wrong about which frequency to adjust.
If you aren't using computer control to be able to adjust uplink and downlink you adjust the higher of the two frequencies.

On the official ARRL VHF/UHF info sheet (
http://www.arrl.org/files/file/Field-Day/2019/2019%20Above%2030%20MHz%20-%20 Rev%20A.pdf
) they suggest that for satellite QSOs operators should only adjust their receive frequency regardless of whether it is VHF or UHF. I thought standard procedure was to adjust the higher frequency whether it is transmit or receive.
