[Elecraft] KX3 with a KPA500

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

H Mike,

Only amp keying and RF from the KX3 (or any other rig) must be fed the 
amp.  No alc is needed with the Kx3 due to its low drive level.

The KPA500 will automatically and seamlessly  band switch when the KX3 
first transmits on a new band by using its internal frequency counter.

73,
