  The Tx monitoring function of the K3 works as you would probably 
expect while you are transmitting.  Speak in the mic, or paddle the CW, 
and adjust the transmit audio level you hear with MON.

In CW mode, since the radio provides the tone and not the microphone or 
line in, the selected CW pitch is generated if you activate MON while 
the K3 is in Rx mode.   If you start transmitting, then the Rx mode tone 
will disappear if present.

Similarly, if you are transmitting in CW and want to change the sidetone 
amplitude, simply HOLD the MON control to select MON adjust mode and 
adjust the sidetone amplitude while you are still transmitting.  The Rx 
mode tone will not be generated.
