For several years I keyed my Dentron Clipperton L amp from the jack on my Pro II. I did not use any buffer and it always worked fine because the voltage/current being keyed are w/i limitations of the Pro II. Without powering up the AMP I ran a cable from the AMP to the jack on the K3 I just received. I noticed that WITHOUT AC power to the amp when I moved the standby switch to operate the K3 PTT was keyed and the rig put out normal power. This is w/o the AMP being ON. Any thoughts from anyone? I do have an AMPKEYER available to use between the units but thought I could key the AMP directly. Why would my STANDY/OPERATE switch on the amp operate as a PTT switch? Do I need to set a parameter in the K3? Of course all equipment share a common ground connection.
