[Elecraft] KX2 and WKmini

Folks:

I recently bought a WKmini to use for portable operation. In reading the
documentation, it turns out that the cable supplied that goes from the OUT
port of the WKmini to the key jack on the KX2 keys the tip with the code,
but use the ring to do a PTT function. I'm fine with QSL on the KX2, so I
don't need this. And in fact, the KX2 will key when either the ti or ring
is  engaged by the WKmini.

Experimenting with the MacWinKeyer.app, there is a selection to turn off
the PTT function, and that works nicely.  I had hoped that exting the
program would leave that setting in the "no PTT" mode, but it is not to be.

So is there a  way that the KX2 can be convinced to only pay attention to
the tip when the mode is set to "Hand" and not the ring?

Thanks,
w8lvn
