[Elecraft] KAT500 + AUX Cable

[Bill K9YEQ]

Iain,

I looked at the specs and I believe you have found a good one.  This is an
older VGA cable and the spec sheet shows as all pins straight through.  If
you are getting one, will you test and let us know?

A cable with all 15 pins connected straight through (and not shorted to the
shield, or anything else) should work fine as the second cable, from the
KAT500 to the KPA500.
