I do not use an amplifier with my Corsair II, but YES you can use your internal
keyer and another keying device at the same time.  Default from the factory 
does
not allow this, but on advice of Ten Tec many years ago, I soldered a jumper
between the KEYER OUT and KEY JACK.  This will allow use of internal
keyer, and another keying device (bug, external keyer, keyboard).  No golden
screwdriver involved with this one.  "73"
