James, A string of dots from the K3 will give full power at a 50% duty cycle. Plug the paddles into the paddle jack and switch to CW - the internal keyer will go up to 50 wpm.
I suggest you do a pre-tune of the amp at low power, then use the CW keying to 'touch up' the amp controls. 73, Don W3FPR K3JPS wrote: > Dear group, > > I've recently acquired an SB-220.
