Tom,

Just curious if setting the CONFIG/TUN PWR actually does what you think?
 I've never tried that, but I would expect it would set the power used for
the internal K3 tuner and the tune button the the K3.  Since you can't tune
the KAT500 that way, and must use the XMIT button to send a carrier
(leaving the KAT in Auto), doesn't that just output a carrier at whatever
power level you have set with the Power knob?

I've heard from Wayne that the communication exists between the K3 and KAT
to fully integrate it (no idea what that means, although I have my wish
list), but it hasn't made it into the firmware yet.

73, Bob, WB4SON
