Wilson,Yes, I did work W4EZ. Our club closed down Sunday morning and I went
home, put my trusty K3S on the battery and ran a combination of phone and CW
for the last three hours of Field Day.Worked W4EZ on 40 phone at 1527 on
Sunday73Mike KC8WHSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone
DavidIt will work fine. I'm am using a KAT/KPA 500 with a Kenwood 590 using the
Kenwood cable. The amp and tuner follow the Kenwood just like they do my K3S.I
expect the Yaesu to work as well73Mike KC8WHSent from my Verizon, Samsung

Mine is set up the same way for years with no problems. Either the manual
and/or Fred Cady's book says the KAT 500 was designed to support the KPA 500.So
have at it73Mike KC8WHSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

I had the exact same problem with my K3s.It was a problem with the 100 watt
power amp.It took a little bit before they got to me but it has been repaired
and is scheduled to be back today.All told it took about a month.Be patient
they get back to you and they will repair it.73Mike KC8WHSent

I use my KPA 500 in SSB and CW ops. Much of it as net control on traffic nets
and passing traffic. A little pile up breaking during DXing and some hunt and
pounce contesting.Temps usually hover around 50c with some trips to mid to
upper 50s.I don't remember seeing it hit 60c.In almost four
While I was taking the Advanced written test the phone in the room rang. The
test administrator picked it up, listened a bit. Then a look of disgust
appeared on his face. Then he lowered the phone, looked around the room and
asked "HAS ANYBODY SEEN A BASH BOOK HERE?" We all grinned back at him
The fans on my KPA 500 kick on at 50C and shut down when the temperature gets
to 48 or 49 C. Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

I noticed this issue exists when using the memory channels as well. My solution
was to remove the Kenwood cable, just hook up the ptt line and let the KAT/KPA
500s sense the frequency and make the adjustments on the fly.They are really,
really quickMike KC8WHSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy

WayneThat's a good idea.The AC 4 power supplies for the Drake 4 line series
just fit inside the MS 4 speaker cabinets, which were the same size as the 4
