I currently have two HF antennae. One is an NVIS loop for MARS and the other is a 4 Element Yagi-Uda 5 bander 20m through 10m. On the KPA500 I have those two antennae connected as follows: NVIS Loop; connected to antenna port one, which also allows me to work 3.52 and 3.8MC. Yagi-Uda: connected

Hello, I currently have a K3 & KPA500, and, shortly I hope, a KAT500.  I have 3 antennas that I electronic switch with a DXEngineering RR8HP Remote Antenna Switch by manually selecting them on the DXEngineering Antenna Control Console. I wish to have some kind of band decoder and electronic swit
