Lloyd,

Pull the key plug out, then see if it stops.  If so, check the key and 
the plug.  The plug must be stereo and have the key connected only to 
the tip and the shell (no connection to the ring).

Any ideas? Everything worked perfectly at home, of course. supply voltage
is 13.2

yes .  Ray, K2ULR, set me right. What I needed, for using my little
Whiterook cootie, turned out to be a connector that was mono on one end,
and stereo on the other, which I had, in my go-bag.

The MENU should be available with your key unplugged.  (If not you have much 
greater problems.)

Go to the MENU, find INP, change that to HND.

Then try your key again.
