It seems that the KAT may not be getting fresh band info - if it did you would
be hearing relays being set before the K3 transmitted. The KPA500 is listening
to the same Band signals as the KAT (but not the Auxbus data), so I would turn
on the KPA500, leave it in standby, and watch the display
KAT500 is in MANUAL mode

Why is it re-tuning? Are you operating the KAT500 in the AUTO mode?
Just go through each
Eric,
Are you operating with the KAT500 in AUTO mode?
If so, after "training" the tuner across the band of interest with any
one antenna, change it to MAN mode and it will not try to re-tune.
As you said, the KAT500 follows the K3 VFO, so there should not be a
need for any retuning.

I am using an early KAT500 with a K3S. When using WSPR in band-hopping mode at
5w, WSJT-X 2.0 commands a band change and transmit, the K3S starts
transmitting, then stops, changes bands, then changes back to the original
band, say 40 meters. I think this part is a WSJT problem, and has been
5 matches
