K3 Interface to Key a Collins 30L-1

Bill - K6WLM
The Collins 30L-1 keying line  =  -170 Volts at 80 ma.
 
This will blow up the keying circuit in the K3 if connected directly
 
What you need:

And if you don't want to put together that kit and also find out a metal box to put it in,buy an assembled multi radios and amps box that Ameritron sells plug and play ready to be used for $59,95, see the link:
