I don't think so. PTT OUT goes to pin 3 of J1 for radios with dedicated PTT.
Note that where it says AUDIO OUT after C1, it is connected to AUDIO OUT on
pin 1 of J1. On most HTs (non-Kenwood), the PTT is essentially via R8. When
used with a mobile or Kenwood HT, R8 shouldn't be installed.

Did I get that right? <g> Not enough sleep for the last week.
