Ed; It is easier than fabricating switch bodies. Mouser has several candidates - look at their 502-ED903. It is a nice hand-held switch in a comfortable case, costing about $12. Add wire and appropriate plug (mine has a phono plug for the K3) and you can build a very nice PTT switch for less than $20.
They also have a new assembly with cable attached for a bit more - something like $160. I don;’t recommend that… - Jack, W6FB > On Jan 7, 2018, at 9:57 AM, Dauer, Edward <[email protected]> wrote: > > I plan to try the SSB QSO party next weekend, and have the adapter for the K3 > and a Heil headset – but I need a remote PTT switch with a ¼ inch mono plug > on one end and a pushbutton switch at the other.
