I wasn't at Dayton, but you can see the connectors here: http://www.elecraft.com/KAT500/kat500rear_visalia.jpg Clearly the "ACC" connection "loops through" the KAT500 to get the KPA500. This makes sense, as it would allow the tuner to interrupt the keying line to the amp during tuning, etc. This part is *speculation* on my part; I imagine that the typical configuration will be a straight-through DE-15 (as supplied in the KPAK3AUX kit) between the K3 and KAT500, and another (identical cable) between the KAT500 and KPA500 73, ~iain / N6ML ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
