Re: [Elecraft] K3 and KAT connections without a KPA500
No, it’s the multi-core cable with a 15 pin plug on each end. Check Page 5 of the KAT500 manual. 73, Alan - G4GNX South Coast UK Elecraft K4D / KPA500 / KAT500 / IC-9700 > On 4 Nov 2023, at 21:50, Jim Cary wrote: > > The Aux i/o is the one with phono type plug on the end, correct? > __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com

Re: [Elecraft] K3 and KAT connections without a KPA500
This is pretty simple, Jim. The AuxIO cable goes from the K3 to the KAT500. Then one of the Antenna outputs of the K3 goes to the RF input of the KAT500. Of course the antennas connect to the KAT500 then (as they did before). That is pretty much it. 73, Jack, W6FB > On Nov 4, 2023, at 3:03 PM, Jim Cary wrote: > > I’ve had to take my KPA500 out of service and want to operate just with the > K3 and KAT.

[Elecraft] K3 and KAT connections without a KPA500
I’ve had to take my KPA500 out of service and want to operate just with the K3 and KAT. I’ve tired different cabling configurations but can’t seem to get the k3 to communicate. The manuals show all sorts of connections with amps, but not without an amp. I know it has to be simple, but sure is beating me!
