Jack, The KAT500 is supposed to have 2 (or possibly more) antenna outputs. In the meantime, you may have to switch antennas manually.
The KRC2 can switch antennas on a per band basis, and may help in your antenna selection scheme. No RF flows through the KRC3 - it provides voltage (or a ground) for your antenna relays. Those relays are not part of the KRC2. 73, Don W3FPR On 8/1/2011 9:24 PM, Jack Regan wrote: > I am considering buying a KPA500.
