Hi Sverre The problem with the in-line volume control is that it will reduce the desired signal also. What is really requested here is a way to reduce the sidetone level when using headphones, but leaving it relatively loud when on speaker. That would be a neat programming feat for Wayne, but I don't know if it is really doable. Imagine, two sidetone menu settings, one for speaker audio and one for headphone audio. That would be an ultimate solution. The volume control would then control the desired signal, just as at present. 73, and Happy New year Bob N6WG The Little Station with Attitude
