The one possible work-around is an Elecraft tuner that will not work unless hooked up to an Elecraft amp and a Kx via proprietary protocol so it knows whether it is QRO or not and can seamlessly drop out of QRO for tuning. Something like how the K2 and the KPA100 work. That's what the TBD ACC2 connector could do, provide handshaking for an external ATU so that it would be operated in low-stress configurations. That ATU doesn't have to come from Elecraft, though. LDG has certainly made automatic tuners that work with Icom's (more or less undocumented) tuner protocol, even making model numbers sorta match i.e. AT-7000. 73, doug back home again, CA 198 to CA 25 to slab. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
