KAT4 ATU

[Dick Dickinson]

I notice that a KAT4 ATU is offered as a separate purchase item.  In the
brochure, that ATU is listed under K4 Key Specs and Features.  Is it safe to
assume the basic K4(F) includes the KAT4 ATU?  

Perhaps the KAT4 ATU is listed separately as a possible option on a future
K4 kit.

Or, perhaps the KAT4 ATU is offered as a 2nd tuner to match a 2nd antenna as
could be found in a K4D.


Hopefully we can get some clarification.


73,

The base K4 does not include the ATU, just like the base K3 did not.
Some people don't want or need an ATU in the radio.

Hi Dick,

The KAT4 is a separate item. It's an upgrade from the KAT3, with three RX/TX antenna jacks and the ability to select any one of the three as an RX-only jack that bypasses the ATU.
