    Hi Len, Yes it will key the sidetone as well as the transmitter if you are in break-in mode.  Just getting one side i.e. dits only.

    Bob, it’s not the plug. I have used different paddles as well. I’m suspecting it may be the contacts in the jack of the radio not making contact?

    Len, I did do that ever so gently with no luck.  So, just not sure what the issue is.  If the Maestro is a client, doesn't it also key the keyer in the 6500?  It does woek from there.

    Oh, and I almost forgot.  Make sure that the plug is well and truly all the way into the jack (don't force it, just make sure it is all the way in).

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
