Bruce,
You are expecting too much! That menu name is "CW IAMB" - the "B" is
part of the name and will not change. The letter in the upper part of
the display is the current setting. Change the parameter to "b", exit
the menu. Then re-enter the menu and you should see the "b" still
displayed (or change it to "A" rather than "b" and it should stay at "A".

I tried that. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work. Rotating VFO A causes
the large capital A in the upper right corner of the monitor to change to a
lower case b but the message at the bottom does not change from IAM B. I've
made the change then exited the menu but when I re-enter the large capital A
is back and the message still says IAM B. I must be going something wrong
but I don't know what it is?

Bruce,
To change from Iambic B to A, when the menu item is displayed, just
rotate the VFO A knob to change the parameter.
The entire menu works similarly - rotate VFO B to select the menu item
desired and then rotate VFO A to change the parameters.
I can't help with your sidetone issue - be certain the pitch is set for
your best hearing. It may that the default pitch of 600 Hz does not
match the sweet spot for your ears.
As a clue that 600 Hz may not match your ears, I have the AF gain set to
low, and rarely rotate it beyond the 10 o'clock position - and I have a
hearing loss problem myself.

Now the problem. I can't seem to figure out how to change it from Iambic
B
to A . I'm sure it's somewhere in the manual but I have yet to discover
it.
Can anyone offer me the magic key?
The other issue is that the side tone level is rather low. The monitor
level is set to the max, i.e., 40. It is still rather low through my
proset
headphones. Is there any way to boost that a bit. I get fairly decent
audio level on receive with the AF gain at about the 12 o'clock position
and
with the AF gain set to high. I would like a bit more side tone level
without increasing the overall audio gain. Does anyone have any
suggestions
about that?
I do thank everyone.
