Quoting from the Pegasus Manual (I know I should never have looked or spoke)
;
"SIDETONE (HZ): This slider control determines both the audio pitch of the
CW sidetone and the carrier transmit offset in CW mode. The default value is
700 Hz. The offset can be set anywhere between 400 and 990 Hz."
Also in answer to next question... Every other rig I have owned that I can
think of (maybe TenTec the exception) when the vox is NOT on, the radio will
not TX but you can hear the sidetone.
