Bob,
The problem with the K2 headphone jack has nothing to do with neither
mono or stereo nor with the contacts. There is a built-in independent
switch at the back of the jack body whose activating arm breaks and the
the path to the speaker remains open after the headphone plug is
removed.

How is the data returned if TT1: is enabled? Is the CAT
function disabled and the port turned into a pure terminal
output or is the received/decoded data returned in
chunks within a TT report (e.g. TT[a string of N characters];)?

Hmm, made me think, the DIGI KEYER (and microKEYER) requires
power if it doesn't come on the CAT/RS232 port.
DigiKeyer powers the USB interface from the computer USB port.
The microcontroller and the radio interface (RS-232/CAT)
is powered separately (usually from the radio). With the K3

Hi David,
If the microHam Mac drivers allow you to create
virtual serial ports that are recognized by OS X, then
the digi keyer should work w/o any need for the KUSB.
If not, then you'll need the KUSB. I'm not sure what
chipset the KUSB uses, but there should be OS X
drivers available. I'm using

Yes, there's a CWT indicator for CW AND for tuning in RTTY and PSK signals.
There's
also an Autotune feature that is active from the SPOT button when CWT is on.

I've had the internal battery pack in my K2 almost since day one (back
in 2001). The whole package feels like it's filled with bricks once you
put the battery in, it certainly stays where it's placed on the shack
bench. I've operated QRP CW for a day on the internal pack without
issues,

Another alternative, which I prefer, is to use the 3.5mm (1.8) phone jack
on the rear panel. There is also a RCA Phono jack for PTT. In either case,
front or rear panel, you could make a simple adapter cable to go from your
non-Elecraft/non-Kenwood microphones.

It would make sense to return that data in a TTstring; format
to allow programs that do both control and data modes to separate

That's correct. Since the Kenwood wiring configuration is what was used as
a standard with the K2 the configuration was carried over with the K3, but
it is not changeable. The wiring diagram is available in the manual and on
