[Elecraft] K3/0 and KPA500

[Brandon Hansen [KG6YPI]]

Hello Reto,

     It is possible to control the KPA500 while using the K3-Remote.  A 
MACRO for PF1 to power On/Off the amplifier can also be set. This setup 
requires a custom cable to go from the K3 to the KPA500, along with 
still connecting to the RemoteRig.  You can find the information on 
remote control of the KPA500 on Page 15 of our K3-Remote Owner's Manual.

I hope this information help.
