[Elecraft] KAT500 question

[Jerry]

Thinking about the answers already received, allow me to ask the question in a different manner. Is it possible to control the KAT500 power on\off via programming macros in the K3 PF2 button?

Best regards,


Jerry, W1IE

Short answer: No.

>From the KAT500 manual:

"Connect to the station 11 to 15 VDC power supply with the white striped lead to the positive terminal. Do not take this power from the K3’s 12 VDC output connector, even if it has been upgraded for 1 Ampere.”

Hope this helps,
