Hi Jeff:
IF you do, how will you then tell the radio specific serial cable pin
to look at for CW keying/RTTY keying/PTT/etc?
If you place them, as Rick and others do, then you can create
mode-specific interfaces for your software.
IF you put them inside the rig, then THAT particular pin will ALWAYS
be dedicated to that specific task, even though the next software
might want to use a different pin to do the same task.
I'd much prefer to have this sort of thing external to the rig and
just use them to KEY the dedicated input on the rig.

From my perspective, those keying circuits want to be inside the
radio, safe from harm. Is there any reason why they weren't made
part of the radio - or why I shouldn't put them in when I get my
K3? (Assuming of course I can get into that part to do so...)
Thanks! - jeff wk6i

It was very easy to integrate - just
a DE9-DE15 cable with two resistor-transistor keying circuits
in the DE9 shell gave me true FSK.
