Well, Keith... the next thing you will be telling me is you prefer a straight key or bug over a keyer... hee,hee. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Awe, man, Drew, you've ratted me out! If you look on my operating desk, you'll see a straight key hooked in parallel with a bug. My paddles are on a shelf in the same room but safely tucked away in a zip lock bag to keep dust off. My microphone is ... well, give me a few minutes ... I know I have one ... somewhere :-) Your other point not needing to hear the sidetone to adjust pitch (just do it using the RX signal) is a good one. I think most times, adjusting offset while listening to the receiver and just having the sidetone pitch follow along would be just fine. But, if some crazy OT has decided to adjust RIT and SHIFT, then the received pitch will thrown off. Other than that, I think the idea is a grand one! I guess if I had the choice between adjusting pitch only while hearing the sidetone or only while hearing the received signal, I'd choose the latter - assuming I still get the pitch readout in Hz during the adjustment. 73 all! - Keith N1AS - - K3 711 - _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
