The answer may be no, but you're not responding to the question asked.
The KPA500 can be switched with Serial or BCD data, in addition to the Elecraft
Aux Bus. I simply want to know: 1) does the KAT500 also switch with BCD data
and 2) if so, can those data come from a KPA500 that is being controlled with
serial data. (When I say Aux cable, I'm referring to the 15-pin cable that
includes BCD (band) data.

Wes,
The answer is NO. The KAT500 and KPA500 take their AUX commands from the K3(S).

I have a K3S interfaced to the KAT500 and KPA500 using the Aux cables.
If I was to replace the K3S with a rig with only RS232 control of the KPA500,
will the Kat500 still follow along using the Aux cables. The Xcvr and Amp
connections on the KAT500 seem to be more or less a pass through.
I know the KAT500 will switch using RF sensing, but that doesn't help in a
receive only situation, which I often employ.
