I do have an op that is having problems with this in conjunction with his Remote Rig setup, but that wasn't the case for me this past weekend. No remote rig was involved this past weekend.

Were you remote, Dennis?

I notice on the VY1AAA remote, if the sequencing is not right, I would get ERR_KEY on the rig as well.
It seemed to happen just as I was logging a QSO (no ESM, just VOX).

This was Windows 10 locally, with the RRC. I wonder if this is the dreaded serial overlap issues that the N1MM and Microbit team has discovered (manifests itself by causing WinKey to stop sending after a few characters on CW.) May be a completely different issue.

    This past weekend I experienced numerous ERR KEY messages.
    According to the manual, this ERR code is returned when one
    "attempts to key the transmitter or activate PTT during power on".
    When this would happen, there was no power turn on, nor shorted
    keying lines- it was in operation with N1MM+ in an SO2R mode.

    What else would cause that error message?  If I tried to key the
    radio before the PTT had been fully asserted, would I get that
    error?  I am thinking that there is some connection between that
    error message and some timing elements of the PTT/Keying process
    that I could correct.

    I have another op that is getting this error in an unrelated
    setup. We are both using the latest K3 firmware, 5.38.
