Rich,

If the RX antenna is the only thing you want to control with the KRC2, the answer is easy - just use the KRC2 configurator application to select the outputs for the bands you desire. The High level outputs can provide the source of 12 volts (up to the current limit of the drivers).

I am not sure what that has to do with the DVK messages - I do not see how those can be related.

I believe that the outputs on the KRC2 on strictly controlled by band information which it receives. I was wondering if there was a way to send RX antenna status to the KRC2 which would close an output to send 12VDC to my active RX antenna and another to activate 12VDC to the preamp for the RX ant when I chose.

My thought was along the lines of the DVK messages which can be activated via the keyboard when using Writelog or other contest programs. I was hoping to send a command via the keyboard to activate the RX ant on the K3 and at the same time send the required 12vdc to the RX antenna via an output on the KRC2 and the same for the preamp if I want it on/off.

I hope this is clearer than mud.
