The answer, IMHO, is no. In either case it would take approximately the same amount of time to send the data as it would for the KAT500 to do RF sensing of the VFO frequency. "
Well, if at at key time the KAT500 already knew the new frequency it could update the relays immediately without measuring the frequency. If this takes 5-10ms, the normal keytime to RF output time delay should prevent hot switching of the relays. What this means in practice is that operators could go right ahead with full power.
