DX-100B Sidetone Question

Ok - call me extravagant - I deserve it!  But I use my Drake
R4B SOLELY as a sidetone for my rigs.  Once in a while, I
run it with the matching transmitter, but it has SUCH a sweet
tone that it's IDEAL as a sidetone oscillator.  Now that IS
extravagant.  And yes, I use it with my DX-100/R-388 pair
(the 388 doesn't do as pretty a sidetone)
