Dave - The THP amp probably needs a TTL input. While the K3 has the same band data output as Yaesu, the K3 output is open-drath whereas the Yaesu output is TTL. Unless the THP amp has internal pull-up resistors on the band data input, you will need to add pull-up resistors to 5VDC to drive the THP amp band data inputs. Phil - AD5X
