The HRD tune button (macro) speaks to the K3 ATU tune function only. When the Elecraft folks change that to control the KAT500 (it's coming soon in firmware) from the K3 you'll be set.
In the meantime, either leave the KAT500 in auto or use the utility program (or the beta remote program) to control the KAT500. I use TeamViewer and Skype remotely to control the radio, tuner and amp (via HRD and utility programs). I made a HRD radio panel CAT command button (X Tun on my display) to put the K3 into Tune mode (same as long press the XMIT button) to remotely tickle the KAT500 into retuning if needed; simpler. "SWH16" (un)sets the CW tune mode. 73, Rick wa6nhc Tiny iPhone 5 keypad, typos are inevitable > On Jan 16, 2014, at 6:50 AM, Bill W <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi All, > I have a question to ask this group as perhaps someone already has the > answer.
