K3s and Acom 2000a

Last year I used an Acom 2000A with my K3S and I only connected the relay
cable and coax to the amp. The amplifier sensed and adjusted itself so
quickly when transmitting that I question what benefit there is to using the
complicated Y cable/computer CAT hookup.

I've read the archives and see Joe Subich's, W4TV, recommendations. Using
the E980297 cable from the K3s to the P3 and then a y cable from the P3 to
connect with computer and CAT control to the Acom 2000a RCU. Anyone else
have any experience doing it differently? 73

Agree. I have done the same for some five years.
And even if you have the Acom antenna switch and selector you just send one
or two dits and you are on the air at the right antenna.
