George,
What K3 jack are you connecting the amp to? You should be connecting to
the KEYOUT jack. If you have connected to the K3 PTT input instead, I
could understand that you might have difficulties like you describe.
Or to the "KEY" input next to it, it if was in CW mode...

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.
