Alas! I suppose the KX1 does not have a separate audio oscillator that you can trigger in receive. I did this on my old OHR Spirit with a pushbutton and one or two diodes. Works like a charm. But many other QRP rigs I guess sample the transmitted signal. Wait! You said that it has a sidetone square wave. I guess with the microprocessor you can't trigger it without a software change. Too bad. OK, now I understand. Yes, having a spot tone in receive to zero beat your prey is a killer way to get someone to reply to you. Makes establishing a CW contact very efficeint. Hope you get your way with the KX1, although it is a bare bones adventure type of rig. However, I would certainly except this feature on the K1.
