I do have the K3 and know how to adjust the sidetone. I just prefer having
the AF gain and sidetone track to one control. Also, I like to be able to
adjust the sidetone level while sending CW which you can't do on the K3.
When you push the mon button you get a constant sidetone. You cannot hear
the other guy sending no can you send cw yourself while doing this. This is
very weird and I have never seen a rig act like this. It's not a deal
breaker but it sure seems crude. Rigs such as the IC-756PRO have a little
sidetone level knob that allows you to simply increase or decrease the
sidetone level while sending or receiving with no interruptions. That's how
it should be.

CW sidetone should follow the AF gain control and be adjustable so they
are about the same level.

Many of us with Omni VI's performed a simple mod that allowed sidetone to
track with the AF gain.
Yes, Steve, but on here we're talking about the Elecraft K3 on which the
sidetone level is a simple matter of just pushing and turning a knob. Do
try a K3 sometime and you will find how simple it is.
