[Elecraft] [KPA500] stuck on TX when AUXBUS attached

[Art Nienhouse]

It would be nice if the function of the AUXBUS cable could be disabled 
from a menu choice on the KPA500 instead of disconnecting of the cable 
between the K3 and the KPA500.

Would this be something that could be done in the KPA500 software?
