[Elecraft] [KX3] connection KX3-KXPA100-KAT500

[Matt VK2RQ]

Whenever you want to use the KPA500, make sure you set the KX3 menu item PA Mode to OFF. You can assign this menu item to one of the PF function keys for convenience.

I would like hook both the KXPA100 and my K3 to the KAT500 in the shack through a coaxial switch, but I can't get the new KXPA100 to play well with the KAT500.  The amp keeps changing from bypass to auto and sometimes the atu in the KX3 also kicks out of bypass.  The rig and amp/atu work fine connected directly to the antenna.
