Well, it actually depends on the sequencer, I'd say. ;-)) Within the "FA station manager" (http://www.dh8bqa.de/fa-sm/fa-sm-en.html) I designed the sequencer to only switch input trigger = output trigger. That means if you trigger the sequencer by PTT (i.e. from the mic) it will switch all stages for pre-amp, amp, etc. and then PTT to TRX as the last stage. If the trigger is CW then it will switch all stages for pre-amp, amp, etc. but *not* PTT to TRX but just opens the CW interlock to TRX so the radio will not see a PTT signal, only the CW signal. Therefor CW in SSB with the K3 works perfectly well even using a sequencer. ;-)) Nevertheless using TX-INH is probably the easier solution for K3's that already have a DVR built in (plus CW anyway). I've designed a solution for that case, too, but not yet up on my website.
