KPA-1500 request

Elecraft mailing list
Since the 4O3A Antenna Genius "in its original form" is not compatible with a K3, that's an excellent reason for Elecraft to offer a good Remote Antenna Switch as an accessory which is compatible.  There are hams like me who work long hours and don't have time for homebrewing.  That said, NS9I tells me that Green Heron offers Antenna Switches with interfaces which are compatible with the K3.
 
Thank You to everyone who replied to my request for information.
 
73,
Dick- K9OM

Is the KRC2 no longer in production?  It provides outputs that can drive
almost any bandswitching logic, including the 4O3A gear.

If I remember what Eric and Wayne have said in the past, they don't
mind having 3rd parties making accessories that enhance the Elecraft
products. They (Elecraft) does not have to make it all..

Jim is correct.

the KRC2 is just the device for the job with the AG.
