[Elecraft] Sidetone Monitor Preference Opinions

[Darwin, Keith]

Before you put your waking shoes on, consider that just maybe I'm the
weird one LOL!

By turning down the AF gain, I'm increasing the sidetone-to-band-noise
ratio, making the sidetone easier to hear.  This assumes the sidetone is
loud enough but is being masked by the loud band noise since the AF gain
is way up to copy that weak signal.

Enjoy your walk.  I'm jealous.  I have to stay at my desk and keep
working ... :-)

"If I want more sidetone, I turn the AF gain down which is simple rather
than trying to turn the sidetone up."

Obviously I missed something in life. Turning down the AF gain to get
more sidetone? Ok..I'm going to take a walk and get some fresh air.
