[Elecraft] KPA500 cables needed

[Don Wilhelm]

Randy,

Those posts are all looking for information about the KPA500 to K3 cable 
- and that can be accommodated by purchasing the cable from Elecraft or 
by building your own.

Your question involves a non-Elecraft transceiver, and those cables are 
not sold by Elecraft - they might be in the future, but not at this 
time.  You will either have to build one for your transceiver and KPA500 
combo or have it built for you by someone who might volunteer.

You *can* operate with your transceiver without the cable.  Just connect 
the KPA500 to your transceiver and connect a Key-out (transceiver) cable 
to the KPA500 key-in.  The KPA500 will quickly detect the band and 
switch accordingly.

73,
Don W3FPR
