Shel,

Keyout is on RF Board sheet 1.
Is your problem only from the internal keyer? In other words, does it work when you use a hand key or computer keying?

If also a problem from a hand key or computer keying, then what is the DC voltage at the gate of Q3 during keydown - should be almost 12 volts.
Do you have 7 volts on the gate of Q5 during receive?

The Keyout is a simple circuit consisting only of Q3 and Q5 - when in transmit, the 7R input should go to near zero, and that should make the gate of Q3 go to a high voltage (almost 12 volts) - that is all there is to it.

73,
Don W3FPR

My K3 does not pull the key out line to ground when pulsed by the internal 
keyer, I need some help in tracing the circuit on a schematic.
