[Elecraft] KPA500 and KAT500 with Kenwood

Good morning

I have been using my TS590 with the serial cable connected to the KPA500
and that works nicely to change bands automatically once set up in the menu.

The KPA500 is also connected to my KAT500 using the K3 cables (they are
simply left in place and the K3 is switched off when using the TS590).

However, with the TS590, the KAT500 does not change bands as the KPA500
does, other than with RF sensing. So I have the situation where the KPA500
does change bands with the TS590 but the KAT500 doesn't.

Does anyone know if there is a way to implement auto band change on the
KAT500 with Kenwood equipment so that it changes at the same time as the
KPA500 ?

I await any responses with interest.

Thanks and 73
