As others said, yes should work. Make sure the small switch on the back of the TS-850 is on manual keying (not using internal keyer). Since you are using basically 2 external keyers (on/off keying of the line), either keying will key the radio.

What I am trying to accomplish is to be able to operate CW from a keyboard OR a paddle/keyer without having to unplug one and plug in the other. Thanks for your advice. 73 de Ed, AA9OZ ______________________________________________________________ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
