K3 Macro command to change CW sidetone pitch

[Mike K2MK]

I was trying to use the CW sidetone pitch command in a macro but it is a GET only command. It does not function as a SET command. I was wondering if there is a work-around.

CWxx; where xx is 30-80 (sidetone pitch in 10 Hz units)

Mike,

SWH42; will simulate activating the PITCH button
DN; will move VFO A down
UP; will move VFO A up.

A combination of those along with inquiring the present pitch setting
with the CWxx; should get you what you want.

Hi Don,

That seems like a good idea, however, it doesn't behave as you would think. Yes SWH42; turns on the pitch function and the actual pitch is displayed in VFO-A. But once that occurs the UP; or DN; function don't actually change the number displayed in VFO-A.

Mike,

Then I would guess that the pitch parameter is not treated the same as a
MENU item.
