Perhaps the enhancement could be a BFO that is adjusted by a front
panel control?
This would be nice, and I presume that you mean that the knob would
maintain the location of the BFO in relation to the passband along
with the sidetone pitch. Currently it's possible to adjust the pitch
from the menu (although this is not a one-knob operation!), but in
order to keep the selected pitch inside a narrow passband, you need to
do the CAL FIL procedure.
So the knob that you refer to would have to cause the microprocessor
to recalculate the VCO offset that is used to place the selected pitch
at a given location in the filter passband. This is what happens when
you run CAL FIL.
This is the one feature that I really wish the K2 had. My TS-940 and
756-ProIII both have this, and I find it very helpful. It's not only
nice to be able to customize the sidetone pitch, but I like to tweak it
easily via a front-panel knob every so often during long operating
periods, like contests - adjusting the sidetone (and zero-beat point) up
or down a little from time to time seems to help minimize ear (or is it
brain?) fatigue.
