Colin,

The most common cause of the 'Loss Of Sidetone' problem is that you inadvertently changed the sidetone source in the menu. If you tapped the DISPLAY button while adjusting the sidetone level, that would do the deed.
Bring up the ST L menu entry
Press EDIT to edit the parameter
Tap DISPLAY to toggle the sidetone source between U6-25 and U8-4 - you may have to tap DISPLAY a few times to get it right When you hear sidetone stop tapping DISPLAY and tap MENU twice to exit the menu.

For your future operating convenience, do not change the sidetone level to match the signal when spotting - instead change the AF Gain to bring the desired signal to approximately the level you have the sidetone set to. The sidetone level is not changed with the AF gain setting, so operating like that is possible.

73,

I have a K2 (s/n 2833) with a seperated KPA100 and KAT100 in an EC2. I disconnected the amp today to run as the QRP setup and my sidetone seems to be gone! I checked with a dummy load and a signal is going out. All of the settings are set to the QRP version (e.g.: Mode = CW, ATU = Auto, StL = 030, StP = 0.60, etc.) and still nothin', ziltch, nada. No sidetone on key down and no Spot sound.
