Are you sure you don't have a short between the dot and dash lines somewhere? The K2 has a feature that allows both a paddle and a key to be connected in parallel. The key is connected to both the dot and dash lines. When the K2 sees both dot and dash lines go low at the same time, it knows that it is the key, not the paddle (you would need a couple diodes to keep the paddle from grounding both lines). You can check this by turning off this feature. Go back to the INP menu (and hold the EDIT button to edit the parameter), the tap DISPLAY. You should see ADET OFF displayed briefly. Now try your paddle. If you have a short, you should now get alternating dits and dahs regardless of which lever you press. -- 73, Brian VE7NGR _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
