Lloyd,
If you don't like my fix for this situation, you can use a footswitch to
activate your amp and switch your preamp off-line before hitting the
paddles - just don't make any mistakes and get things in the wrong order.
I have not seen anything comparable to my solution. It was intended
specifically for those using VHF gear with the K2.

Has anyone come up with a simple fix to add an external PTT line to the K2?
I recently picked up a used K2 and just completed building a 222
transverter. I didn't realize that the K2 does not have a Transmit/Receive
switch. So, I will be hot switching, in CW mode. WSJT is not a problem as
there is a built in delay between when PTT and audio is outputted.
An external sequencer won't help as I can't get control of the K2 PTT line
in CW mode.
Any ideas besides W3FPR's fix?
