[Elecraft] Begali Intrepid Key

[stan levandowski]

Pete, if we do that it acts like a paddle ;)  It's got to go into the 
"Hand" key jack.  I just tried it with my K1 in "hand" mode and got the 
same result as with the K3.  And again, my other bugs operated just fine 
with the K1.  There is no problem with the radios.  It's the way we've 
got the INTREPID wired.

I'm going to unsolder everything today and figure this out.  There's 
only three wires to play with and I think I know how it works now. 
Going down to the workbench now.
