With the  band switching cable between the radio and amp, the amp 
follows the receiver frequency/band.  Thus it is not necessary key the 
radio or to transmit anything.  The bands are loaded with miscellaneous 
garbage today.  Why add any more?

My K3S connects to my KAT500 which connects to my KPA500.   Sure is a 
sweet and reliable system.  Hard to screw up anything.
