Hi, Yes, but the cables are BNC terminated cables connected via adapters from the looks of it it. Not in my shack either, but that is beside the point. More questions: How much current on the 11-15V supply? Is the "tune" button a simple switch to ground? You know what I am getting at. I want to mount this fellow outdoors in a weather protected shelter and remote it. I have been doing that successfully with an MFJ auto-tuner for more than 3 upstate NY winters and it's still going strong. I think my "house" can accommodate the KAT500 with some rearranging. Assuming that the tuner will switch to bypass when losing power, all I need is the ability to initiate a tune cycle. I assume that the tuner can be put in semiautomatic mode (only tunes on demand) and will remember the mode across power cycle. I am drooling already. The MFJ tuner performs adequately but has a 200W limit and is somewhat temperamental when it comes to finding a tuning solution. An Eham reviewer of it claims that they have wired the 4 LSB bits for the relays backwards. I find it hard to believe but it often fails to find solutions on easy to tune antennas (I have 6 behind an MFJ remote switch box).
