If you decide to install that switch, just use it to open the key
line. Then TX requires closing that switch plus activating the key.

Is there any setting in the K3. using an external CW keyer and PTT, that
can be used to make the key inactive while in the receive mode? As is,
while the PTT function at first glance seems to work normally, it is, in my
opinion, incomplete in that closing the key while receiving turns on the
transmitter. For reasons that are both personal and compelling I will
control the transmit/receive function completely by a manual send/receive
switch of some kind.
I can accomplish what I want by using a double pole switch, one pole for the
normal PTT and the other pole in the key line. I am trying to save myself
the trouble of installing such a switch--getting lazy in my old age.
Any help will be appreciated.
