[Elecraft] problem using CW on K3/0

[Hugh Bradley]

After a lot of twiddling I have managed to get my K3/0 talking to my remote
K3  (using the Remote Rig modules). I have found the system works almost
seamlessly. I am really pleased with it. I brought the K3/O unit on holiday
with me and found I could operate my home station almost as if I were
there.

At the operator / control  end sending CW involves using the Remote Rig
module which has a keyer built in to it with the K3/0. The module has a
small black knob on it which controls the keying speed and has a paddle
input. I have two problems using CW:

1. When sending CW the tone is monitored from the K3 speaker. It is
over-loud and I cannot find a way to reduce its volume. For me it is too
loud to operate. The controls on my K3/0 do not seem to affect it and there
are no controls on the Remote-rig module. . Maybe I am missing something
here and perhaps someone can help.

2. At the back of the Remote-rig / keyer module  is an input for a paddle.
I cannot use a straight key to this input. Is it possible to attach a
straight key to the K3/0?
