[Elecraft] New KAT500 pics from the Visalia DX convention

Yes, the connections are as you've suggested.
The KAT500 has access to the K3's band change lines, AUXBUS, and can
interrupt the KPA500 PTT key line with just that one cable.

I have that same "too busy" ACC connector problem with antenna & bandpass
filter switching, amp, PR-6, and PTT/FSK connection to a microHAM device.
I'm using a couple of layers of Y connector, dislike the solution, and I
have ideas to resolve that problem somehow. 

Unfortunately I have more ideas than time to implement them.

I see a couple 15-pin HD connectors,  "XCVR" and "AMP".   

I have a pretty well stuffed plug on the K3 ACC socket now (RTTY interface /
KRC2 / PR6 / KPA500).  Does the K3 to KPA500 cable simply go to the KAT500,
then a jumper from the KAT to the KPA ??

THX!
