[Elecraft] Interlocking two K3

[Edward R Cole]

The simple fix is to move the 470-ohm resistors to be inserted 
between pin-1 and Pin-7.  The resistor is used to limit current draw 
when pin-7 is grounded (inhibiting Tx).  With pin-10 directly 
connected to pin-7, pin-7 will go directly to low when pin-10 does.

If you want a little more insurance that current goes the correct 
direction add a diode pointing toward pin-10 from pin-7.

I am using inhibit with my station sequencer (except with the 
opposite logic: INH=HI):

also added a little more band logic for use with transverters and 
disables inhibit with HF.

Charlie, how this could work after there is no way the TX Inh inputs
to be pulled down?
