Michael,

Does the cord from the paddle that plugs in to the keyer have a 3.5 mm or 
one fourth inch stereo plug?

Also, how does the cord connect to the paddle?

If you disconnect the cord from the paddle and leave it plugged in to the 
keyer, do you still get the string of dits?  When trying this, be sure the 
wires don't touch each other while doing this test.

More to come after you answer these questions.
