Grant,

There may be other suggestions, but I believe your proposed setup is most effective and adheres to the *KISS* principle.

Is there a straightforward way to mute the receiver in the K3 from an external 
"mute" line?

I want to use the K3 receivers with some vintage transmitters, and am looking 
for the best way to accomplish RX muting.  Not that an R-390 with a Sherwood 
sync detector isn't a  good receiver, but summer is coming, and there's enough 
heat in the shack from other sources  ;)

All I've managed to conjure up is to put the K3 in TEST and then assert PTT 
from aux contacts on an external antenna relay.  Am I missing something obvious?
