Bob: One solution might be to set one of your programmable function keys to be sidetone level. At least that would eliminate the problem of going through the menu each time you needed to change it. 73's, John AA0VE Bob Tellefsen wrote: Hi Sverre The problem with the in-line volume control

-Original Message- The problem with the in-line volume control is that it will reduce the desired signal also. I believe that is exactly what is needed. The inline volume control will affect both the sidetone level and the audio output just as the suggested modification of the

Fred, Since you are reducing the setting of the AF gain control when changing from headphones to the speaker? If so, that is the reason in a 'nutshell' - the level of the sidetone is not controlled by the AF gain. So, if you set the sidetone level to be correct for your speaker volume, then it

Tnx Don I think you may have hit the nail on the head. I DO have to reduce the volume greatly when using the headphones. From my perusal of the schematic for the K2, it looks like if I changed R36 it would change the AF level on both the speaker AND the phones...NOT what I *think* I want. It

Fred, R35 and R36 are only in series with the headphones, not the speaker (follow the audio amp output through the switch on the headphone jack to verify). You will have to experiment with the required value - I do not have voltage levels corresponding to the numbers of STL, nor do I have the

I think you may have hit the nail on the head. I DO have to reduce the volume greatly when using the headphones. From my perusal of the schematic for the K2, it looks like if I changed R36 There isn't really any need to modify resistor values in the K2 to achieve what you want, unless you
