[Elecraft] K3 and N1MM

[Guy Olinger K2AV]

Wouldn't the trick be to get the separate K3 paddle to initiate a signal
back to the computer over the cat cable so that paddle input would stop a
computer generated sequence in its tracks?

That would mean that K3 would always generate an unsolicited "paddle-active"
signal output outbound on CAT toward the computer, and whatever was on the
computer side of CAT cable would have to be looking for it and respond by
halting any earlier ongoing response and killing anything leftover in a
buffer.

That's not just one man's code.  But agree it would be nice, because paddle
could always be hooked up to K3, casual or contest.

73, Guy.
