Hi Mike,
Thanks for the reply. K6MKF also suggested that. The shorted RCA
jumper placed in the PTT IN jack also does not key the K3, so it is
looking like it is something under the hood of the K3.
Thanks again,
Eric

I use a donated Heil FS-3 foot switch plugged into PTT IN and it works
perfectly.
Try plugging a short circuit RCA plug into the K3 and checking if it
keys or not. The only other RCA socket in that line is KEY OUT to the
linear!

Hello All,
I've connected a Heil foot switch to to rear panel PTT In RCA jack
and it doesn't key my K3.
I searched the archives here and found that Don W3FPR had suggested
testing the foot switch of another unfortunate, Dick K9OM, who
suffered the same problem. This thread went unresolved, AFAICT.
I've tested the Heil and it checks out.
Any ideas as to why my foot switch will not key the K3?
TIA,
Eric
