[Elecraft] Auto Tuner

[Don Ehrlich]

For what it's worth the Band Decoding in the K3 is compatible with Yaesu 
band decoders.  If LDG is compatible with the band decoder of Yaesu then an 
appropriate cable from the tuner to the DB15 connector on the K3 should 
work.  Such a cable is available from Array Solutions.

If the tuner communicates only through the RS232 port then all bets are off. 
This may be likely because the tuner really needs to know the exact 
frequency rather than just the band.

Is it true that they do not support Kenwood?  That would be strange.
