With this option
off, the CW key will not key the Orion in SSB (form the CW front panel
connector) and will not act as PTT.
Why would we want to use KEYing line for PTT control?
When you switch to Orion to CW mode, the PTT line on the MIKE connector still
acts as a KEYing line regardless what menu is set on.
I looked at the schematics and there are some discrepancies.
I will contact TT.
The PTT pin on MIKE connector should stay PTT line regardless of mode.
