Yes, Don, that's what I'm planning on doing.

I have a KPA100 already built, and have the EC2 with the larger front
panel for the KAT100, which I'm planning to build the KAT100 into.

So, basically I just need to install a BNC cable in the rear of the
KAT100-2 and drop in the KPA100 into the KAT100-2?

Are there other resistors, diodes, etc. that need to be changed in the
KAT100 or the KPA100 (or the K2 RF board) to make this work? Or is it
really that simple--adding a BNC connector and plugging the KAT100
into the KPA100?
