Kx3 and KXPA100 without PX3 while using a computer pan adapter

jaevans
Greetings all,

  I’ve been using HDSDR with Omin-Rig with a  Xiegu G90 and was able to get
the panadapter setup working with my KX3 by itself.  Now I want to add my
KXPA100 into the setup and am wondering how the cabling should be
configured.

  I have my computer connected from the KX3 ACC1 port through the KXUSB
cable to my computer.  I also have the KX3 RX I/Q port connected through a
USB sound card to my computer.  All seems to be well in this configuration.

  Looking at the KX3 manual and Cady’s The Elecraft KX-Line book, it seems
that I would connect the amp through the KXPACBL control cable.  This
hookup looks like I need to connect both the ACC1 and ACC2 end of the
control cable to those ports on the KX3.  Do I just let the ACC1 end of the
control cable dangle?  Is anyone else running a similar setup that can
provide some insight?

  Thanks in advance
  73 - John - n0hj

John,

You plug in both the ACC1 and ACC2 cables from the KXPA100 (in the
KXPACBL) - the PC connects to the KXPA100.
