Bingo! The line from the key terminates in a 1/8" jack. The adapter from 
their to the 1/4" K3 jack was somehow bad. No short in the jack or in 
the key line separately. But, when connected together, there was the 
short between the tip and the ring. Damnedest thing.

Thanks, Bill. Now on to the contests. Just love this list.
