[Elecraft] KAT500 Rev A manual up on web page

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Good catch, Randy. The DB15 cables have one male and one female connector.
We weren't consistent with the depiction of the connectors.

I was looking at the cabling diagram in the manual and it appears that the
drawings for the AMP and XCVR have the wrong sex on the jacks. 
Unfortunately, unlike the descriptions in the K3 and KPA500 manuals there is
no text in the manual specifying the connector sex. If they're really like
the drawing shows, you would need a DE15 cable with male connectors on both
ends and a DB15 cable with female connectors on both ends. It appears to me
the XCVR jack should be a DE15 female and the AMP jack should be a DE15
female. Then the two cables could be the same, with a different sex
connector on each end.
