NOW I am totally confused!!! Are you telling me that the connector pins on the K3 for FSK keying and
data will change when`the firmware changes? Or are you saying that those pins are mode specific, and
I will have to disconnect my FSK cables to operate CW or phone?
I'm having a hard time believing that... - jeff wk6i

Hi Jeff:
IF you do, how will you then tell the radio specific serial cable pin to
look at for CW keying/RTTY keying/PTT/etc?
If you place them, as Rick and others do, then you can create
mode-specific interfaces for your software.
IF you put them inside the rig, then THAT particular pin will ALWAYS be
dedicated to that specific task, even though the next software might
want to use a different pin to do the same task.
I'd much prefer to have this sort of thing external to the rig and just
use them to KEY the dedicated input on the rig.

From my perspective, those keying circuits want to be inside the
radio, safe from harm. Is there any reason why they weren't made part
of the radio - or why I shouldn't put them in when I get my K3?
(Assuming of course I can get into that part to do so...)
Thanks! - jeff wk6i

It was very easy to integrate - just
a DE9-DE15 cable with two resistor-transistor keying circuits
in the DE9 shell gave me true FSK.
