[Elecraft] KPA-500 from Orlando

[Don Wilhelm]

  Mike,

I am not Wayne, but I do not see a problem because the band data signals 
from the K3 come from simple TTL level drivers (they are outputs).  
There is nothing wrong with having multiple receivers listening to the 
driver output - as long as the available current from the driver (fan 
out) is not exceeded.

OTOH, connecting multiple drivers to one input signal will create 
confusion without additional gating logic.

The physical connection may require a full 15 pin "Y" adapter (note that 
a VGA splitter will not work - all pins are not isolated and some are 
missing).

73,
