Phil - I've been using the CM500 on my K3 for a couple years - very nice. I have a six year old boy so that pretty much negates using VOX here while on SSB; I use PTT 100% of the time! I made up a small box that has a momentary push button switch and a toggle switch on it in parallel. I ran a wire from it to the PTT In jack on the back of the K3. Works great - I can use either the toggle or the push button switch for the PTT function.
