Subject: [Elecraft] Using a K2 with an Amp

Hi folks, this is my first time here.  I'm dreaming about a K2 - hope to
build it myself.  While I wish to do some QRP work, I keep a sched on 40
mtrs with a friend and it takes somewhat more than the 15 watts the K2 will
output.  At times we can contact on 15 watts, but 99% of the time I have to
crank the power up - this is SSB.

I've got a solid state amp (much like the SkyWalker 500) that requires
taking 12VDC to ground with a current draw of about 8-12mA to key.

My question is: How would I wire the K2 to key this amp?

73's and thanks for any info,
