Hi, If you have a hearing test scheduled anytime soon, ask for a copy of the frequency vs. hearing threshold graph. Find a place you hear well, and set the sidetone for that frequency. This made a BIG difference for the better, in the speed, and ease by which I copy CW. 73s and thanks,

Ed, The short answer is YES. You can change the sidetone pitch, but that is only the sidetone that you hear - and that setting also determines the transmit offset. Assuming your CW filters are currently centered at your 580Hz pitch, you will need to move the center of the CW filters to

I aligned the filters on my K2 for several different pitches and wrote down the values for each. Then I was able to change pitch fairly quickly, within a minute or two, by dialing in the recorded values. 73, Drew AF2Z On Wed, 23 Oct 2013 16:08:30 -0700 (PDT), you wrote: If I change the CW

I few years ago, I built a tiny transmitter box using a simple Canned Crystal Oscillator that runs at 7.385mhz. Pop a 9 volt battery on it and lay the wire lead near the K2 when I’m re-adjusting the filters. I know it’s not the conventional method, and I’ve tried the others. But it’s quick and

Eddy, The answer is maybe. If you are changing only by a small amount, then you will not have to realign the filters. If you change the pitch by a goodly amount, then the answer is yes. Look at it this way - if you have the most narrow filter set for a center frequency of 600 Hz and the
