What is the advantage of using a band switching cable between the

Do you trust that RF sensing function? REALLY trust it? Because if you
transmit
into the wrong LPF, it can be Game Over for the PA transistors. I went
through
three sets of expensive LDMOS devices on my Medium Linear project before
I bit the bullet
and hooked up the band data from my FTDX10.
With the band data hooked up, the linear is always set to the correct
band. Even before
you transmit.

I want to drive my KPA500 from an FTDX 101D, is a cable the better way
to
go?
