[Elecraft] [K3S] Side tone, SPOT discrepancy

[Robert G Strickland]

Thanks for the replies. No, CW is not in REV, and radio is not under 
computer control [though it is hooked to the computer for N1MM and 
LPan]. But, the strangeness occurs regardless of side tone pitch, band, 
filter width, filter center, and whatever. I can just ignore the 
selected pitch so long as the actually operating pitch is acceptable and 
tunes right. But... that's an itchy way to do things, and I'd like it to 
be "right."
