[Elecraft] Foot pedal ptt switch with KX3

[David Ahrendts]

Joshua, with the Heil foot pedal, cable and microphone, the cable has an added plug for the foot pedal. Even if you home brew, much easier than using the precious ACC2 port. I’m sure someone on the list could give you the tip-ring-sleeve pins for a home brew right from the the much 3.5mm jack. Best.
