[Elecraft] K4 interface to KPA-1500

[Bob Wilson, N6TV]

With a KPA500, just set RADIO to K3, and this works fine with the K4.  No
KPA500 firmware update is needed.

The K4 recognizes the difference between the KPA1500 and KPA500 by the
AUXBUS messages it receives, so it changes popup messages such as "KPA500
Status:  operate" and "KPA500 Status:  standby" to "KPA1500 Status: ..."
automatically.
