"Another thing that I've heard asked for a few times that I'd
appreciate is the ability to hear the signal while adjusting pitch
rather than a solid tone. I know that if the user had no signal tuned
that they be adjusting somewhat blind. However the band noise will
still have a different sound based on the pitch selected."

In STAR Peter Rhodes evidentally modulated the sidetone with the
envelope of the incoming signals to get a self-adjusting tone to zero
beat. That is really slick. When I first fired up my K3 a few weeks ago
I thought it was doing that and I grinned. Maybe I changed a
flag/variable somewhere and turned it off, or maybe I was dreaming, but
that's a pretty neat function to have, Lyle.
Bill that quote was not actually from me but someone else.  Yes the K3 will automatically tune itself to zero beat if you use the CWT function.  Check the manual.
