I can't answer for the KAT500, but the KPA certainly can be operated in this fashion. The KPA needs the K3's PTT output connection, and its operation is enhanced if you connect the band signals. It also has an RS-232 port that allows you to monitor and control the KPA from a computer. So the answer as far as the KPA500 is concerned is a definite yes.
