[Elecraft] PR6 Preamp - "control connection"

[Cady, Fred]

Hi Joe,
If you purchased the KPAK3AUX cable set with your KPA500 you should have a 15-pin Y-cable adapter.  If not you can get one from Elecraft or another vendor.  Be sure to NOT use a VGA y-cable.
Simply put the y-cable on the back of the K3 and plug the control cable for the PR6 into one leg and the KPA into the other.

Cheers and 73,

Subject: [Elecraft] PR6 Preamp - "control connection"

My wonderful XYL gave me the PR6 for Christmas - trying to figure out how to connect the "control wire" as I have the cable to the KAT500 / KPA500 already in the ACC socket - the instructions say if the ACC is in use to just connect the control wire to pin 11.
Anyone have an easy way to do this?
I have the Elecraft cables which are all molded so no access to the back of the connectors.
I can't seem to find a "VGA" breakout box.
Thanks es 73.
