I go by Buck on the air -- old habit -- easier to send CW and more easily 
recognized.

Don't you change volume when you put on the phones?  Or need to dig a weak 
signal out?  Or maybe your hearing is better than mine.  I just don't remember 
a 
radio where the sidetone volume was tied to the main: Icom 746 & 756Pro, 
Yaesu 920, 100D & Field, K1, K2, Scout or Heath SB102.  

I will reread the section of the manual on weak signal Dxing and try 
programing the AGC so I can find a Main AF setting and leave it alone.  Just a 
different approach I am not used to. It doesn't seem right.  Why have a Main AF 
knob 
at all it this is a "set and forget" function that could be buried in a menu?
