[Elecraft] Dunstar Question

[Dick Dievendorff]

If your K3 is now providing band data to your Dunestar, it probably is using
a band decoder from the four BAND lines on the K3 ACC connector.

The Elecraft KPAK3AUX cable set
(http://www.elecraft.com/manual/KPAK3AUX%20Cable%20Set%20Instructions.pdf)
includes a Y connector that enables you to connect the KAT500/KPA500 as well
as another device (your existing band decoder) to the K3's back panel ACC
connector.

Be careful when selecting a Y connector; some sold for VGA monitors may not
have all 15 pins connected as you would expect.

Subject: [Elecraft] Dunstar Question

Current configuration: K3 ---> Dunstar ---> Alpha 87A

New configuration: K3 ---> Dunstar ---> KPA 500 ---> KAT500

Question: How do I control the the band switching on the Dunstar? Is there a
way to parallel the Dunstar from the K3 Acc? If not, which is better?
Disconnect the Amp Aux or the Tuner Aux?

This is an SO2R station. Second station is: K3---> Dunstar ---> ACOM 2000A
