[Elecraft] AF1 - Practical Use Question

  Stan,

Another subtle point that some do not grasp without further information 
is that the sidetone pitch entered into the menu is also used to control 
the transmit offset (except on the K1).  If you do not have your 
sidetone pitch and the audio frequency that you are listening to the 
sending station in agreement, then you will end up coping him "off 
frequency".

So bottom line - set the menu sidetone pitch to the same frequency as 
you wish to listen to (and have your IF filters aligned to), and you 
will potentially make more contacts.
