Iain,

That operation was tossed about at great length during the early K3 Firmware Field Test. I forget all the details, but the current operation was the consensus at the time.

If one is using a sequencer with an external input into the K3 PTT, the sequencer should start activation with the PTT switch, not Keyout.

Changing his sequencer input should resolve the problem, although he may want to use TX INH in additon to allow RF only when the sequencer has finished.

That solution allows normal QSK on HF and protection when using transverters and/or preamps that must be protected on VHF/UHF.

It does seem a bit lame that KEY OUT is activated when the K3 is not
transmitting. Maybe there should be an (optional) mode where the CW
key inputs (including memory) are completely ignored when VOX is off
and PTT is not asserted......
