Hi Roger
Different solution !  You could use TX DLY.  This delays the RF out from the
K3 (setable in mS steps).

Subject: [Elecraft] TX Inhibit options

Hi All.
I am using a K3 with internal 144 transverter module.
On 2m I use a sequencer for TX/RX as I use a PA and a LNA at the masthead.
The rig TX is triggered by the sequencer by using the PTT In line.
The sequencer ensures the rig is switched after the LNA. The sequencer is
triggered either by a foot switch or by the signalink Data line.
The problem I have is that there is a HUGE risk (and I have done it) of
inadvertantly using the manual TX button on the front of the K3. If this is
done the rig goes to TX and teh sequencer is bypassed - thus blowing the
LNA.. ouch.
This issue is compounded by the fact that on all other bands I need
conventional operation of the ring as there is obviously no problem with
sequencers elsewhere and you get used to using eiher ptt or the tx button.
Question then - is there a way of disabling/inhibiting the TX button/ mic
socket ptt on the rig just on 2m so that on 2m you can only instigate TX via
the back panel PTT in line?
Help appreciated!
