I've been using Titans with my K3s for years. Works great. The Titan is
a nice amp.
All it needs is an RCA-RCA cable from the K3 amp key out to the PTT in
of the Titan. QSK works fine, but if you work a LOT of CW, it's possible
to wear out the main T/R relay. No problem, they're easy to find,
reasonably priced, and not difficult to change. I've done it a couple of
times in ten years. It's a vacuum relay, mounted on a small board right
behind the output coax connector. The stock relay is a Kilovac or
Jennings; most of us use exact replacements by Gigavac. They have a
special discount for hams.
Schematics are on my website. Scroll down. k9yc.com/publish.htm

I have just purchased an Ten Tec Titan 425 amplifier and was wondering
the best way to hook it to my K3? I would like to be able to use QSK
with the amp too. Just don't want to mess anything up, so thought I
would ask here first.
Thanks in advanced for any suggestions..
