KPA500 Cabling Qustion

[David Inger]

In anticipation of receiving my KPA500 kit (July?), I had one question
regarding cabling.  If the AUX cable is used, does that eliminate the need
for PA KEY cable.  I assume it does since pins 10 & 12 of the AUX connector
provide PTT.  I would appreciate a clarification?

Yes.

If you connect a K3 to a KPA500 with the KPAK3AUX cable, and omit the
"interrupter" that looks like a gender changer with a pin removed, you do
not need a separate K3 to KPA500 key line.  The required keying line is in
the KPAK3AUX cable.
