Using a KAT-500 and THP HL-1.5KFX

Is anyone using this combination with automatic bandswitching/tuning? I
have the amp and K3 along with the special cable that connects the K3 to the
amp for auto bandswitching. I'm hoping that will also work with the KAT-500
added.

Thanks,

Pete, W1RM

Bump… Anyone? I'm about to be in the same boat pretty soon. Already have
the 1.5kfx and I'm going to have a k3 and a kat500. I'm hoping that that
there is a way to make them work together smoothly, much like the
k3/kpa500/kat500 do…

Guys, all you have to do is get Fred Kady's book: http://www.elecraft.com/elecraft_prod_list.htm#kpa500
At the bottom of the KPA500 order page. You'll see it.

It lists every possible scenario of connecting these items together.
And a lot of other things you're gonna wanna know about integrating these devices.
Of course you can't attain the integration of the K-Line (easily, with least amount of cabling) but you can get very close to it.

I second Slava's recommendation. A very good book
-- and takes up little space in pdf format :-)
