CW Side tone


 

My CW side tone is very loud, the volume setting in the CW menu does not have any affect. I am using V12 boards and running Ver 50.2.
Any ideas on what to look for?

*** Yeah, there's a line you need to change in the .ino file.
Inside setup_cw_transmit_mode()
you will see something like: sidetone_oscillator.amplitude( 1 );

Replace it with:
sidetone_oscillator.amplitude( sidetoneVolume / 500 );

Why isn't this a menu item?

*** It is. It's also one of the settings accessible by poking at the volume control
knob switch.
