I want to get the KIO2 for PSK31 use, and of course its more cost effective
to get it with the KPA100.
(I know you REALLY don't need it but it simplifies things for my use.)
Don't really want to spring for the KAT100 with the KPA100 for now, so the
question is this:
Is there any reason I can't use my KAT2 between the KPA100 and the antenna?
That is, install a BNC connector at the KAT2 input and simply plug it in to
the antenna-out of the KPA100.
Of course, I know its limited to 20 watts nominal, but from what I've read
20 watts is about all I need for PSK31. And I see where you should only run
the K2 at 5 watts for this without the KPA100. So it solves two problems,
lack of a tuned antenna and a little more power.
Thanks guys,
