The reason I'm puzzled is that pin 2 is a dc bias point, so I'm not seeing
a frequency dependence there.
I made a homebrew charge balance VCO and compensated a bit of HF droop with
a small resistor in series with the integrating cap. This kind of VCO is
amazing. Too bad the quasi-saw output isn't nicer.
