Please help!
I wanted today to use my K3 in the car, working some CW on 80m.
I am using a mobil whip antenna tuned to 3530. I have used this installation several times before with success.
In the morning today I tested the installation, tuned the antenna, sent some CW with the bencher and
everything seemed OK
I then drove 1 hour to my operating location and put the K3 to live.
Receiver working  OK  and ant tuned very well, reached for the bencher to start sending cq,
but the internal keyer was silent. No CW transmission. Not a single dit or dah.
I drove home and have now tested the bencher into my Winkey and all works fine, but moving the manipulator to
the paddle jack on the K3 is not producing any CW.
What has happened and why??? What am I missing?? Any ideas is most welcome!!
