[Elecraft] QSK With K3 and KW Amp

Hello,
     Is any anyone using one of the old DEO QSK-1500 full QSK switching
units (or the similar PIN diode QSK unit from Ameritron) with their K3 and
external amplifier? I haven't yet received my K3 but I would like to hook it
up with my Heath SB-220 to run full QSK.  I suspect that I will need to use
an external keyer (and not the one internal to the K3) to trigger the PIN
diode switching electronics.  Same deal with software-generated CW.
     If you are running full QSK this way with your K3, let me know if you
experienced any problems setting up the switching, and if you are
successfully running contest/computer software in the CW mode with full QSK.
