Have you checked the obvious things? I feel qualified offering the following suggestions as I've made all of these mistakes myself :-)

- Make sure the antenna is plugged into the right connector. If your KAT2 is connected, use one of the "Antenna Tuner" connectors on the back side of the top panel. If the KAT2 is NOT connected, use the Antenna connector on the back of the bottom cover next to the power connector.

- Make sure the KAT2 RF cable (J7) is connected to P6 on the RF board. (I don't know if it's changed, but it used to be that the RF connector (P6) and the battery connector (P3) were the same. There are warnings in the manual about getting them mixed up.)

- Make sure the KAT2 control cable (J8) is plugged into P4 on the Control Board correctly. The green wire should be at the top.

Just throwing this out there while I start backtracking to figure it out.

I have installed the K160RX, KAT2, KBT2 and now the KSB2. Prior to install I was able to hear activity on the bands. After install I could hear very
few stations.
