Hi Toby, if my memory serves me right (digged into the schematics about 7-8 month' ago when I had a problem with one of the key-out jacks) this will never work as both key-out pins share the same circuitry. It's just different "final" switching transistors (and thus different loads possible) that distinguish both.
A solution around this could be the band specific PTT solution of WW2R/G4FRE (http://g4fre.com/K3_PTT_sw.htm) or something similar. The key is to use DIGOUT0 or DIGOUT1 to control external switching. It can be configured per band. 73 & gl, Olli - DH8BQA ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, April 11, 2011 10:33 AM Subject: [Elecraft] K3 keying the KPA-500 & transverter > Hi, > > I plan on using my K3 with the KPA-500 and my Kuhne 144 MHz transverter. > > I would like to use the ACC (pin 10) Key-Out for the KPA-500 and the > RCA/Phono Key-Out jack for the transverter.
