As answered on the microHAM list: With the K2 you will need to set the CW PTT in Router to QSK. The K2 ties PTT and the dit input (tip of the CW jack) together. When setting K2 to INP HAND this effectively makes PTT and CW the same. The short solution is to use INP HAND and set microKEYER II (in Router) for QSK (no PTT) in CW. If you want PTT operation, you will need to modify the K2 to provide a separate CW PTT input.

Correct, with microKEYER II asserting PTT, the dot paddle is closed for the duration of the text <G>. 73, ...
