RE: KX1 Sidetone--N0MF's Technique

[Mike Fitzgibbon]

Gentlemen, Steve...

    A CW sidetone IS available for matching to the received signal
tone...and here's how it is done:

    1)  Enter the menu and rotate main tuning to StP (sidetone pitch).

    2) Exit menu with two quick taps of menu button.

        Now, when you hold down(not just tap) the menu button you will
get the sidetone at whatever pitch you have it set...  and to exit/shut
it off...simply tap menu key two times again.

        Of course, this has to be set up every time you shut off/ power
up the rig...but hey...it's easy and works just FB for Fitzie (that be
me)...

Right, but it mutes the RX, which the K2 and K1 don't do.

Hi Fitzie and all,
Great that's exactly what I was looking for.  I think sometimes its good to
hear the sidetone for a short burst to be confident that you've tuned in the
signal correct.  True, its not heard during receive, but I think it should
be good enough.
Steve, W2MY
