I too prefer a higher pitched tone. I guess that is because I learned the code 
with a 1000 Hz tone or perhaps too many years of 1004 Hz test tones at the 
telco. Too bad the K2 will only go up to 800 Hz. Perhaps Eric and Wayne, you 
might consider adding this to the wish list of feature enhancements?
