Phil,

Depending on what other options you have (I.E. PR-6 6 Meter Pre-Amp) it is recommended to buy the
the KPAK3AUX.  This is a Cable Set that contains the Aux Cable, Y- Cable and Key Line Interrupter. 
The important ones for "K3 Stations" would be the Aux Cable and the Y-Cable.  On Elecraft's WEB Site,
under the Order Page, they have this Set Listed along with a .PDF File that shows what is inside the package
and the recommended "Hook Ups".

If you use the PR-6 6 Meter Pre-Amp there is a slight problem.  Won't go into details but the important thing to 
remember is that Elecraft is coming out with a new firmware version 1.09 that will take care of a few issues along
with the incompatibility of the PR6 and the Aux Cable Operation.   

Go ahead and get the KPA500....  It is a GREAT Amp!

Regards,

I have not yet bought my KPA500 but I am confused by all this talk about cables and I admit to not paying too much attention.  But, for a regular K-Line configuration of K3+P3+KPA500 and a future KAT500 do I need to purchase or make any cables or is everything supplied in the boxes I would receive from Elecraft?
