Length of KPA500 Aux cable not given

[Guy, K2AV]

Trying to look up the length of the optional AUX cable for K3/KPA500.
 Neither the web site listing on the order page, nor the referenced manual
sheet pdf list the length of the cable.  It looks to be about 3 feet, but it
would be nice to know.  Length of the cable should be in both places.

73, Guy.

Too short IMHO.  I think it is 3ft or 1 Meter.  6ft  or 2 meters would
be better or at least an option for 6ft.

These cables are pretty easy to build. All you need is the raw cable,
two connectors, a soldering iron, and the manuals for the K3 and KPA for
connector wiring.  Just be sure to buy quality connectors.

Or Elecraft could make the cable longer or offer a longer one for those
that like to plug and play.

I agree.  The 3-foot AUX cable doesn't work for me.  I've added an article
in the "Equipment Modifications" section of my website at www.ad5x.com
showing what I used for an AUX cable and for a 240VAC power cable.

Its 3 ft long. You can also daisy chain two KPAK3AUX cables for 6 ft.
