[Elecraft] K3S SSB TX monitor

[Richard Lamont]

Barry,

Thank you. You've confirmed what I suspected: that the desired
functionality doesn't exist.

To prevent monitor audio from the microphone from reaching the speaker,
while keeping it going to the headphones, and to do this without
operator intervention, seems a simple enough requirement.

Having to fiddle with the monitor level after plugging or unplugging
headphones is a right pain. What I'm asking for seems such a no-brainer
I can't believe it isn't standard. Why on earth would anyone want their
live microphone audio routed to the speaker? It's a transceiver, not a
public address system.

73,
Richard G4DYA
