Bingo! The line from the key terminates in a 1/8" jack. The adapter from
their to the 1/4" K3 jack was somehow bad. No short in the jack or in
the key line separately. But, when connected together, there was the
short between the tip and the ring. Damnedest thing.
Thanks, Bill. Now on to the contests. Just love this list.

A short in the keying path - most likely external to the K3. At the key,
inside the plug? Just a shot in the dark.
