I made up a small box that has a momentary push button switch and a toggle switch on it in parallel. I ran a wire from it to the PTT In jack on the back of the K3. Works great - I can use either the toggle or the push button switch for the PTT function.

I'm going to be also using an 8 pin Kenwood MC-50. My K3 was up to now for DX only use, but as I'm downsizing I would now like to it use for other types of operating, and would like to use macros for the first time to switch between the two mic's. Thanks in advance for any useful information...
