"The only downside to using Icom gear with the KPA/KAT500 is that Elecraft does not "read" the frequency "voltage" indicator and therefore does not preset the tuner to the correct values without transmitting."
KPA500 only needs to know the band but KAT500 needs to know the actual frequency within the band. Isn't ICOM band voltage exactly that - a band indicator not a frequency indicator?
To implement the interface properly you'd have to know the exact TX frequency which I think could be extracted from CI-V data.
