Can't Hear My Sending CW on K3S

When I send CW on my K3S, I cannot hear it either on the speaker or phones. As most probably are, I am dependent on the auditory feedback to send CW properly.

I suspect I have a setting wrong.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

73,

You probably have the TX Monitor set to zero. Press and hold for 3 sec the Comp/Pwr knob. VFO B display will change to TX MON and show setting. Adjust as needed (2-5 should be in ballpark).

Put the K3 in CW mode, then press and hold the CMP/PWR/MON knob, the
display will change to MON, that is your sidetone adjustment.

I'm having the same issue with the KX2, what would be the adjustment on
that? Is that the Transmit Gate?
