[Elecraft] KPA 500 Question

[Pete Smith N4ZR]

I have a KPA-1500, and followed the manual's instruction to run an Aux 
cable between my K-3's ACC jack (on the KIO3B) and the KPA-1500.  I 
prefer to have the band changing already accomplished before I go key 
down, even for just a dit.

73, Pete N4ZR
