Maybe this could be put on the list of enhancements for those of us using a
500 watt K-Line system?
Maybe even similar to the KX3/KXPA, where the transceiver ATU TUNE button
tunes the KAT500.
One press of ATU TUNE on the K3/K3S or TUNE on the KAT500 would be very
welcome for me!

Subject: [Elecraft] New KPA1500 feature: ATU TUNE integration with K3 and
K3S transceivers
If your KPA1500 is connected to a K3/K3S via the ACC cable, you’ll be able
to tune the amplifier’s internal ATU without touching any controls on the
transceiver.
For a manual tune, all that’s required is to tap the ATU TUNE switch on the
amplifier. (Originally, three switch presses were required, because of the
need to start and stop TUNE at the transceiver. This will now be handled
automatically.)
For SWR-based re-tunes, the amplifier can now complete the ATU tuning cycle
quickly even in SSB mode, with no operator intervention required.
