If you have the optional Aux cable, set the K3 power set to "Per Band", then you can have different power levels depending on the OPerat or Stndby mode of the KPA500. You will just have to go thru once and set the levels to get 500 out (and whatever you want for Stndby). The KAT3 is never really bypassed, it is just put into default settings that are matched for a dummy load. I would tune the ATU into the amp and leave it on. Keith WE6R
