This would restore keying control to the operator. --------------- Now we're almost back to something I asked for several years ago; A "bug emulator" mode in which the dit side makes dits and the dah side simply keys the tx like any self-respecting "bug". Push the dah paddle and you get a dah until you let go!
I know, it can be done with diodes on the K2. Tie two diodes to the key inputs that connect to the dash contacts. I do it even more accurately with the K2. I plug my bug into it! But the KX1 is just a little clumsy with a key bigger than it is hooked on - and not nearly as portable. So it'd be nice for those of us who like bugs if the KX1's paddles could behave like one.
