Jed...
I have used a K2 and a K3 for a total of well over a year, and have
received many unsolicited compliments on the audio. I am using the
Elecraft hand mike. May I suggest that the quality of your audio may
have something to do with the headset?
The CW sidetone level is set by pressing/holding for a second or
two the knob labelled cmp/pwr/mon. Once the "mon" function shows up on
the screen, adjust the level with the same knob. (You must be in CW mode
for this to work.)
I would recommend the "Nifty Ham Accessories Mini-Manual" from www.
niftyaccessories.com...there is a lot of stuff "in there!"
