[Elecraft] K2 CW Audio Note

[John R. Lonigro]

Steve:
I believe the problem is you can't just adjust the pitch of your 
sidetone on the K2.  I realize it looks like just another menu item that 
you can tweak, but once you change the pitch, you have to go through 
filter alignment again, to position the passband in the right place.  My 
guess is you adjusted the filters with the sidetone at 800 Hz and then 
tried to bring it down to 600 Hz.  If that's what you did, you need to 
do the filter alignment again with your new sidetone.  The raspy note 
should go away.
