> I don't think there are many on this list who have any familiarity with the FT-102 but maybe those with experiences with hybrid transceivers from the mid 80s have experienced this problem and can advise. 
> I seem to be having what sounds like 2 side tones coming from the speaker when I have the Moni on and the volume of the keyer turned all the way down, when keying in CW with my keyer. 
> However, when I turn the vox-gain control all the way to the left and my keyer's volume control down, the tone is normal through the speaker and headphones when connected. 
> When I turn the vox-gain up to key the rig though, then I get the 2 side tones. Straight key operation is normal. 
> I'm kind of thinking that back in the hay day of the rig, CW was mostly operated with straight keys and bugs, not allot of external electronic keyers and maybe should just turn the Moni off and use the side tone of the keyer to monitor.
