Hans,
I see no reason it would not work. If the amplifier presents a good 50
ohm load to the exciter, then I would suggest you forst tune the KAT2
into a 50 ohm dummy load for ANT1. Connect the amp to the ANT1 jack
from the KAT2 and it should drive the amp just fine.
That leaves ANT2 to be used with another antenna for QRP operation. The
KAT2 tuner remembers the tuning combination on a per band, per antenna
basis, so if you do not change antennas (or the connection to the amp),
all should be automatic when switching bands or from QRO to QRP operation.

I have just concluded assembling a K2. Within a few weeks I will have an ATU
installed too.
I wonder if this transceiver could work through a Palomar TX 5300 PA.?
The TX 5300, a solid state RF-amplifier, will put out a 500 watts PEP if fed by
10 watts of excitation.
