If your K3 is now providing band data to your Dunestar, it probably is using a band decoder from the four BAND lines on the K3 ACC connector.
The Elecraft KPAK3AUX cable set (http://www.elecraft.com/manual/KPAK3AUX%20Cable%20Set%20Instructions.pdf) includes a Y connector that enables you to connect the KAT500/KPA500 as well as another device (your existing band decoder) to the K3's back panel ACC connector. Be careful when selecting a Y connector; some sold for VGA monitors may not have all 15 pins connected as you would expect. 73 de Dick, K6KR -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dick, WN3R Sent: Tuesday, April 02, 2013 7:34 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] Dunstar Question Current configuration: K3 ---> Dunstar ---> Alpha 87A New configuration: K3 ---> Dunstar ---> KPA 500 ---> KAT500 Question: How do I control the the band switching on the Dunstar? Is there a way to parallel the Dunstar from the K3 Acc? If not, which is better? Disconnect the Amp Aux or the Tuner Aux? This is an SO2R station. Second station is: K3---> Dunstar ---> ACOM 2000A 73, Dick, WN3R ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
