Jim,

That would likely indicate that the dot and dash contacts of the paddle 
are shorted together.
Make sure the Stereo plug is fully inserted into the Paddle jack.
If it persists, insert a stereo plug with no wires connected (use TX 
TEST), then on the back of the inserted plug, short only the tip to the 
shell - do you hear dits?
Short only the ring to the shell - do you hear dahs?
If both the above check are correct, there is no K3 problem - check your 
paddles and the cable.
OTOH, if you get alternating dits and dahs in the tests, contact 
[email protected].

73,
