K2 CW Plug Wiring

Bernard Gaffney, N8PVZ/QRP
Hi,

  A couple of questions:

 
  1. Wondering how the CW plug for Hand or External
keyer is wired? The K2 manual (pdf vers) doesn't
indicate this directly, it just says the RING is used
only for a Paddle. Therefore I assume one uses the TIP
and GND for hand/external keying? Along of course with
setting the appropriate options in the K2. Checked the
archives back aways, didn't see anything on this.

 2. With my TenTec Argo V model 516 (former rig), if I
was in CW mode, keying the mic would also key the rig,
without audio from the mic. Is this possible with the
K2? Mainly used when tuning via an external tuner. (I
do have the KSB2 module installed).

Yep, that's it. Just Let RING float (connect it to nothing)
