CW sidetone function
When the transceiver is in the receive mode (and the
Break-in function is OFF— p. 79), you can listen to the
CW sidetone without actually transmitting.
You can also use the CW sidetone to practice CW
sending, but be sure to turn OFF the Break-in func-
tion.
The CW sidetone level can be adjusted in the “Side
Tone Level” item of the Keyer Set mode (p. 54).
