Hi Kurt:

Chances are that he probably CAN be remoted that far, however, I don't 
believe that any of us (the FTs) have ventured to that extent quite yet.

At present (during the FT cycle) Wayne's asked that we connect the KAT100 
to the K2 via a cable not to exceed 3 feet.

I suspect that it won't take too long for one (or more) of the FTs to try 
remoting the ATU further from their K2... at least once the initial FTing 
is completed.
