I can't help you with the KAT500 question, but with a 13 to 1 SWR on 6m you
would be strongly advised to improve the match at the aerial.

Hi George,
A 13:1 SWR is what you might measure on 50 MHz looking into 50 feet of RG8
with NOTHING attached to the far end. From a reasonableness and efficiency
standpoint one should not plan anything more than 3:1 as a normal load for
a coax in coax out tuner. Less than that as frequency goes

While I don't have my new K3S radio yet, I did print the Owners Manual.
It shows the MIC audio connection to be pin #1 as MIC audio, pin #7 as
GRD, and pin #8 as GRD. My question, are pins #7 #8 the same or is
one analog ground and one chassis. ground. If so, which is analog ground

This is looking more like a WSJT-X problem. I set my MIDI control to 48000 and
fired up cocoaModem. Was able to easily send a 1kHz test tone and then send CQ.
Going back to WSJT-X failed miserably. No amount of fiddling with the VOX gain
or Mic drive control OR the controls on the front of the

Wiring the XLR for the mike;

pin #2 mike high,
pin #3 as mike low.
To the radio 8 pin connector;
pin #1 as mike high,
pin 7 as mike low,
pin #8 as ground.
For what its worth, I use a three conductor shielded cable and thus

Hi James,
I use a TASCAM US-366 with my Mac and have the sample are set to 48,000 Hz with
no issues running WSJT-X versions 1.4 and 1.5. I use VOX control. You might
have to go in and week the K3 VOX Gain and Line In Gain menu settings, however.

Nope, never did any hacks to the application. But I will look around at any
config files I can view!

Assuming there has been no change from the late K3, pins 7 and 8 are
both connected to circuit board common. Since the K3/K3S front panel
mic jack is generally compatible with Kenwood (except for the reversal
of pins 5 and 6), most folks treat pin 7 as mic return and pin 8 as
As best I can tell from the schematics, 7 and 8 are connected together.
However I use 7 as mic ground and 8 as the shell, like Kenwood.

Bob,
Unless you are absolutely certain that pin 8 goes straight to the
chassis, use the connector shell for the shield to be certain that you
don't excite a Pin One Problem.

The K3 mic jack shell is also connected to the circuit board ground plane.
Sure, it is a pin 1 problem since it does not connect directly to the
front panel metalwork, but connecting the shell to the board ground is
better than leaving it float. The shield of your mic adapter cable

Many thanks Joe.
The latest firmware fixed the problem. All works well.

Hi Jim,
I'm only guessing, and I know nothing about the Apple world, but I'll do
my best. There are two communications speed settings at play. One is the

Audio Tab of WSJT-X, and wants to be 16-bit 48 kHz. The other is
