KPAK3AUX cable length

[Art Suberbielle-2]

Hi all,

Does Elecraft sell a longer version of the standard cable? I need about 3
more feet. As an alternative, can 2 of these cables be used in series to
provide the extra length without creating any timing issues for the KPA1500?

Thanks & 73,

Art,
I use two in series to my KPA1500 without issues. Before that they were used in series with the KPA500/KAT500. Also, with no issues.

Art,

The Y-BOX (v2.1 and later) converts any standard (economical) 15-pin M/F
DE-15 cable into the equivalent of a KPAK3AUX cable, plus it supports other
features not supported by the stock Elecraft cable, such as KPA500 /
KPA1500 remote power on/off via a K3 macro (DIGOUT1 to pin 8), and easy
insertion of a SteppIR tuning relay Interrupt into the 15-pin cable's
keying line (pin 10).  It does not work with VGA monitor cables (never used
those with any Elecraft product).

I offer 15-pin cables with the Y-BOX in both 2.5 ($10) and 5-ft lengths
($12).  Connect two M/F 5-ft cables together to get 10 ft.

More info at https://bit.ly/Y-BOX .
