[Elecraft] Amplifier Hook Up

[Dave G4AON]

J15 (phono) is the keying output... it connects to the drain of Q3 and keys a linear...

=========================

That PTT RCA socket is an INPUT - to close the PTT line  - ie it puts the K3
into transmit.

>/ I use my K3/100 with an Acom 1000, I just connect the phono keying
/>/ output to the amplifier keying input with a phono to phono screened
/>/ lead. The Acom doesn't have ALC output, so it's not an issue. The
/>/ K3/Acom combination works great on CW with no relay thumps or clicks
/>/ from the almost silent vacuum relay in the Acom linear.
/>/ 
/>/ The ALC input to the K3 is positive going (0 to + 5 Volts on pin 15 of
/>/ the Aux I/O socket) and has been discussed on the Reflector previously.
