Hi Chad,
used an IC-7100 together with my KPA500 remotely for almost a year
(before upgrading my remote station to 100% Elecraft, i.e. using a K3 +
K3/0 nowadays). Worked like a charm. Did not do any special cabling
except PTT and coax, the KPA500 takes care of the band changes
automatically with it's RF sensor. The only "drawback" is you have to
switch on the KPA500 using the KPA Utility software as there is no
"switching signal" as the K3 can provide using a special macro. But I
never had a problem with the KPA software doing the job except you need
an own remoteable serial port for it.
Hope that helps.

Hi Group,
Has anyone successfully used the KPA500 with the Icom 7100? I use the Icom 7100 remotely and would like to throw some power behind it. With the KPA500's remote management software and capabilities, it is obviously first on my list.
Just wondering if anyone has any tips or comments to the configuration. Specifically from a remote shack perspective.
Thanks,
Chad
