[1000mp] CW keyer - disable on one jack?

[Jun Tanaka]

George

I know WDXC of Yaesu Japan provided mods service on this issue. This mod
makes the real panel jack for a straight key (or PC keying) and the
front panel for both a straight and the keyer.
I believe I still have the schematics of the mod. If you want to see I
will try to find it. The mod is for MP (not MkV) but I guess it works on
MkV as well.
