You will not be able to use the 2 diodes (BTW, that is a logical OR
function - it is 'active low') with the K3.
The K3 has a KEY input in addition to the PADDLES input. You can
connect the paddles to the paddle input, but you will have to add a
cable to the straight key to run to the KEY
Bob,
Not to worry about the logical function, different minds think of it in
different ways. My thinking is that an active low on either the dot OR
dash contacts makes the output low. That goes back to my old TTL

You may have the CW tuning indicator installed in that K2.
