[Elecraft] K3 to KAT500

[Bill W2BLC]

The internal 100 Watt ATU is really a fine piece of work. It is quiet 
and fast - displaying no bad habits.

I cannot say that about the KAT500! The latter has a habit of retuning 
in the middle of a QSO. It is disconcerting, making noises and flashing 
various lights and sometimes kicking the KPA500 into standby.  Even 
placing the tuner in MAN does not keep it quiet. I would recommend 
waiting on that purchase until the bugs have been worked out.

Elecraft is currently working on the problem - in the interim I have 
some very exensive paper weights.
