The K3 is the only transceiver I've used with this facility. Monitor
level is saved per mode. I have SSB = 4, CW = 10 and Data = 5.
I never notice any monitor audio on SSB, neither do I particularly feel
the need and could just as well turn it off. Sidetone on telephones was
an attempt to stop folks shouting. Maybe a lack of it is why you can
hear the one sided conversations of folks talking on mobiles from across
the street.
For me CW monitor is for sidetone and Data monitor is just a gentle
background burble to indicate all seems to be working.
The house is pretty quiet and at nearly 69y my hearing is OK not having
been exposed regularly to damaging noise levels. I usually use CM500
phones anyway with CONFIG AF GAIN = LO and the AF gain pot seldom above
9 o'clock.

Barry,
Thank you. You've confirmed what I suspected: that the desired
functionality doesn't exist.
To prevent monitor audio from the microphone from reaching the speaker,
while keeping it going to the headphones, and to do this without
operator intervention, seems a simple enough requirement.
Having to fiddle with the monitor level after plugging or unplugging
headphones is a right pain. What I'm asking for seems such a no-brainer
I can't believe it isn't standard. Why on earth would anyone want their
live microphone audio routed to the speaker? It's a transceiver, not a
public address system.
