Andy,
You've answered your own question. If it doesn't happen when the entire
rig system transmits into a dummy load, but has problems while connected
to an antenna; you know where to look.

This is really strange.The only thing I can think of is some kind of
feedback to the TS-590s ALC circuitry caused by common mode current on
the feedline. An easy test would be to connect a common mode choke at
the output of the KAT500 and see if the problem goes away. Does the
antenna have
Eugene,
The KAT500 will work with almost any radio made in the last 40 years (or
somewhat older), presuming the rig has I/O data available. If it doesn't
read the band data from the radio ( on it's ACC port), there are still
plenty of ways to allow it to do what it needs to do. The utility
I use KAT500 Utility remotely by running it on a small, inexpensive server
computer at the remote station and displaying and controlling it via Chrome
Remote Desktop. (There are several equivalent remote desktop programs.)
Note that you can not run KAT500 Utility and KAT500 Remote Server at the
Ok, I've done some homework and have a good understanding of the KAT500 and the
KAT Utility which seems to have all the functions I am looking for.
Next question. If I want to control the KAT500 over ethernet, my understanding
is I need to use the Remote server and client applications.
I have a new power oscillation problem that is manifest only on 40 m when using
an attic dipole. Basic station configuration is Kenwood TS-590S, KAT500,
KPA500. As drive power is slowly increased and output power rises above about
100 W the power output falls to zero then slowly rises again.

Hi All, I have taken my Kpod from my K4
and put it on my K3. (I assume it works for both rigs). The K3 has had
the Mod completed as per the Kpod manual with a 6.8 Ohm, 1/8 W Leaded
Resistor as per pages 16-18 of the Kpod manual.
