FW: finished with the k2 for now.

[Brett gazdzinski-2]

 When you change the sidetone pitch, say to 800 Hz,
the cpu does its magic and changes the bfo frequencies, per
the manual (I keep re reading it).
Mine seemed to take a while to update, or it needed to be
power cycled or something, its real close to the 756 pro now.

The cpu seems to be doing lots of stuff inside the K2!
