Jim,

The short RF Input coax on the KPA100 is still needed, it plugs into the 
KAT100 board to receive the input RF that is attached to the KAT100 Aux 
RF input.  The BNC to BNC cable is entirely on the outside and connects 
to the KAT100, not the KPA100.  The KAT100 Aux RF input is only used for 
this purpose.

The speaker cable is not needed because there is no place to plug it.

73,
