[Elecraft] Externmal ATU

[nr4c at widomaker.com]

The discussion below is one approach, but not the situation I am  
dealing with.  I am looking for a way to access the signal from the K3  
that tells the ATU to TUNE.  I want to use the front panel ATU button  
to start the TUNE process, not a button on the tuner.  Leaving the  
tuner in AUTO mode is an annoyance I really don't like.  There has to  
be a signal that tells the internal ATU to start tuning, so I want to  
acess that signal to send to my LDG or AH-4.
