Help with remote side tone setup

Hi All,
I am having a problem and I hope someone out there might be able to help me.

I am putting the final touches on setting up the station to operate remotely. I have used this setup last year and it worked perfectly. This year I am having a problem with receiving the CW side tone.

Here's the set up:
Both the remote & control PCs are running Win7 64 bit.
I am using a Webrelay to turn on the K3.
I am using TeamViewer to remote into the "remote" PC.
I am using Win4K3Suite to control the raido.
I am using N1mm+ for my logging/contesting, etc.
I use Skype on both computers to hear the audio from the K3 radio and see the P3 via webcam

On the control side, I can hear the background noise and stations and work (S7P and run) with no problem, just can't hear my side tone.

I come to the "remote" side, using N1MM+ for S&P and run, I can hear everything including the side tone.

For some reason, the side tone is not coming over to the control PC.

I think that's everything!

Any ideas? Maybe a setting? The Monitor level is set fine on the K3, so that's not the problem.

I contacted Tom, author of Win4K3Suite and he suggested I contact this group.

Thanks in advance,
73 de Jim - KE8G

Re: Help with remote side tone setup

The following answered my similar question: The version I received was
5.53, and the monitor tone is back.

I believe this is corrected in the latest field-test firmware release (5.53) which I'll send you.

Hi,
Today I upgraded my K3 with new FW, I was using 5.38/2.86 and I installed
5.50/2.87
I then discovered that the CW Monitor audio was lost on Lin Out. First I
tought that some settings was messed up but could not find anything. I
then downgraded my K3 to 5.38/2.86 and the CW Monitor audio was back ! I
found that if I change settings from LIN OUT = "Nor"as I normaly use to
"=Phones", the CW Monitor audio comes back. So something have changed the
function of Line Out audio in the new FW release.
Since all audio levels follows the Front AF vol when using "=Phones" this
mess up levels to my soundcard in the PC. My K3 s/n 1464 have the old KIO
board without USB interface

Is this a known bug ( or maybe a feature ..) ?
