[Elecraft] [KAT500] Help with KeyLine Interrupt on KPA500 (Video)

[Igor Sokolov]

I think what happens is KAT500 needs few msec to determine the operating 
frequency and measure SWR. There is currently no delay between PTT going 
into KAT500 from the radio and PTT going out into the KPA500. These few msec 
is enough for KPA500 to switch itself to fault condition.
Here programmable PTT delay in KAT500 would be very helpful. Especially so 
with other makes of the amplifiers.
I have discussed it with Elecraft tech support and they say this feature is 
on their to do list. Lets hope that the next firmware revision of KAT500 
will have that feature implemented.
