[Elecraft] KAT500 - can't change antennas on 6 meters

[Ted Edwards W3TB]

I had something similar on my KAT-500 where I could not get to antenna
connection 3.

What I did was to do the update of the software and then open it to
manually turn on antenna 3 and it was fine.

I have the cable if you need to do that.
