[Elecraft] KAT500 Key Line Interrupt when in BYP mode?

[Michael Blake]

When the KAT500 is powered on but in the Bypass mode will it still open the key line to the KPA500 at the preset level (3.0:1 in my case) if the load suddenly goes above 3:1?

The situation is a remote autotuner connected to a 33’ vertical that I use for bands that I do not have a resonant antenna.  On those bands the KAT500 is in the BYP mode.  A remote switch brings all of the antenna choices in on a single coax which connected to the KAT500.
