Don,
I do not think so. Inhibit signal does not disable PTT. Therefore when the first station starts to TX and then the second station presses PTT the first station TX would get disabled by Inh right in the middle of the transmission. I think it would be easily resolved if K3 firmware is changed so that Inh signal disables PTT in at the same time.

Al,

It is all in the timing. The first K3 to transmit will get priority. If both try to transmit at exactly the same time (think milliseconds), then and only then will both be locked out.

I'm curious... how should that condition be resolved? Should the system randomly choose one or the other station to transmit, or ...??? If so, then it will probably need a microprocessor and it will no longer be a 'simple' circuit.
