Mike,

The coding for the K3 6 meter band is the same as the KRC2 60 meter band 
(and the KRC2 does not decode the 0000 combination used by the K3 for 60 
meters).

Connect the KRC2 to the K3 and verify that the /60 output goes to ground 
(check with ohmmeter) when the K3 selects 6 meters.

I know this is the case for the K3 Band0 - Band3 ouputs, but I have not 
tried the KRC2 with the K3 yet - I am assuming that the AUXBUS settings 
are the same as the Band0-Band3 conditions, but then one knows about 
assumptions, it needs to be checked.
