Why would you want to vary the signal pitch? Because a different pitch
can provide better copy under different reception condtions. But it's
pretty hard to tell what that optimum pitch might be without listening
to the signal as you adjust it, right?
Brett,
I'm not suggesting that offset pitch and sidetone pitch be different.
They are the same.
I'm suggesting that sometimes you want to adjust this pitch by
listening to the sidetone and sometimes you want to adjust it by
listening to the received signal. Currently you can't hear the signal

Yes, PITCH would seem like a good choice for the signal pitch
adjustment. Or perhaps signal pitch could be made an additional option
for the RIT/XIT control when RIT/XIT is off? (RIT is already an
