[Elecraft] KAT3

[Jack Regan]

I know the KAT3 is wide ranging but I was wondering if it also has the
ability to affect receive as well as transmit.

My TS-570D's internal tuner does not, for example, whereas both my external
tuners do.

 

Between that and the fact that I also have a 1500 watt PA that works with my
existing antenna farm has caused me to not order the KAT3 with my K3/100. 

 

I would like to have the convenience of the extra ANT input, I have two
antennas, as well as the convenience of the antenna memories, but between
the receive tuning AND the fact that I will be occasionally using high power
I have decided to forego the internal tuner for now.  

 

Am I on the right track here, or am I missing something?  BTW, if money were
no object I would just order it and be done with it!
