Cris,
In that case, you have firmware 2.04R which locks the sidetone source at
U8-4.
Is your K2 Serial number below 3000? If so you must do the sidetone
source wiring changes as shown in the KIO2 or KPA100 manual.
If SN3000 or above, you have a problem that needs to be found. Do you

You likely do not have the proper sidetone source selected.
Go to the STL menu and set the parameter to about 30 - then tap DISPLAY
to toggle between U6-25 and U8-4. Stop when you hear sidetone and exit
the menu.

Dear Joe,
I do use 740Hz as a work-around. But, for me, the higher the better.
From F#5 to A5 makes a difference. I'd go even higher than 880Hz if
