I connected a diode in series with the tip and a diode in series with
the ring across the paddle mini-plug and out to my sparkless Navy
straight key.
So can send with the paddle and the straight key just by moving my hand
from device to the other.
I am pleased to learn that you have had success in doing this, Tom. I am
afraid that in trying to do this I get alternate dots and dashes
occasionally when pressing the straight key. Following suggestions on
here, I have even tried using matched Schottky diodes but still get the
trouble. I find that the only sure way of sending using the straight
key is to change the menu to InP HAnd
