[Elecraft] K3 Audio in speaker during transmit.

[Bruce McLaughlin]

I have mainly used a Pro Set with the earphone plugged in.  But
recently, I switched to a Heil Goldline with no earphone plugged in.
Nevertheless, I hear myself in the speaker during transmit.  I have the
speaker + phones feature turned off.  I thought the speaker should be
muted during transmit but it is not.

 

Someone else remarked that the monitor volume should be turned down but
I don't understand why that should be necessary if the speaker + phones
option has been set to no.  I also would like to avoid having to do that
because if conditions suddenly turn bad and I need the earphones, it
would be a pain to also have to turn the monitor back up.  Does anyone
know if the above situation is really normal?
