I have just completed building KPA500 s/n 346.

It went together pretty well and the initial power on test was OK.

However, I connected the K3/KPA500 cable I had bought and it wouldn't work !

Just a case of RTFM !

Updated the K3 firmware (and the KPA500 firmware as well) and turned on the
auxbus and voila it is working great.

No QSO's yet, just set up the stby and oper power levels and tested on most
bands.

QSO's to come later.  Yippee !

Please excuse the grammar.
