[Elecraft] [KX3] Sideswiper mode for internal keyer (also K3)

[Bruce Beford]

Understood, Thomas.
I just thought I would post what Wayne had already stated on the other list. perhaps as more people indicate interest in this type of configuration, a firmware change will add that option.

Wayne had posted this on the KX3 Yahoo group 2 days ago:

"You'll be able to configure either the left-side KEY jack or the KXPD3
as paddle normal, paddle reverse, or hand-key. Auto-detect of a hand
key in parallel with a paddle via two diodes is possible but not yet
implemented."

Thanks Bruce, but not quite what I'm looking for, I want to use the "internal" paddle as a side swiper, so either contact on the paddle works as a straight key (similar to wiring up the paddle as a side swiper but doing it in software rather than physically)!
