K3 Suggestion - Spot/Pitch

drewko
FWIW, another suggestion for the pile...

While tuning some weak CW with my new K3 it occurred to me that the
ability to vary the pitch of received signals might be userful. Under
marginal conditions this might prove handy in optimizing a weak
signal.

Of course, we have the PITCH control-- but when it is activated the
sidetone comes on and the received audio is cut off. I suggest that
the sidetone should be absent and the received audio should be heard
when PITCH is activated. Then by varying VFOB one can directly alter
the pitch of the signal(s).

Now, since VFOB has no function while SPOT is on, perhaps it could be
used to vary the sidetone pitch.

In short... PITCH would allow you to directly vary the pitch of
received signals while listening to them, while SPOT would allow you
to vary the pitch of the sidetone.

73,
