KPA1500 F/W 2.09 Beta has been released to the elecraft website. It can be
downloaded from the support f/w- s/w page in the K-Line\KPA1500 section.
F/W 2.09 provides a significant improvement in ATU tuning results. It also an
improves the communication of current radio frequency between the K3/K3S and the
1500 via the AUX cable. For those of you upgrading from 2.0, see the full
release note list on the Support Firmware and Software page link below.
Both of these issues were highlighted in the recent "KPA-1500 tuner question"
thread on the Elecraft email list. Our thanks to Scott-K9MA, Walt-WA1KKM, our
regular KPA1500 Field Testers and others who have helped us quickly address
these issues.
We also have a new KPA1500 Utility (Windows Version 1.19.2.21) on the same
KPA1500 page. Mac and Linux versions will appear soon. This utility version has
several improvements and also fixes a bug where the erase ATU memories Utility
button did not always perform the erase. (The erase always worked when done
directly from the KPA1500 front panel menu.)

the beta download zip file are at the lower part of the KPA1500 section.
