[Elecraft] Brown Bros. CTL-B paddles/key with K3

[David Bunte]

Steve -

I don't have a the CTL-B now, but did many years ago.  The connection is
very straight forward.,, but you did not state if you use an external
keyer, or the keyer in the K3.  If using an external keyer wire the paddle
portion of the CTL-B for the connector required by the paddle input of your
keyer.  The output of the keyer will go to the KEY input of the K3, but you
will want to use a 1/4" mono 'Y' cable (two female, to one male), so you
can connect the straight key portion of the CTL-B in parallel with the line
from the keyer.

If you are using the keyer built into the K3 it is still very straight
forward.  Wire the paddle to a 1/4" stereo plug, and plug it into the
PADDLE input of the K3.  Wire the straight key portion of the CTL-B to a
1/4" plug and plug it into the KEY input of the K3.


Best of luck.
