Hi Larry, Don't worry, you're not breaking any new ground. You will need a few items.
You'll need a Y cable and an S-13 cable from SteppIR or you can make your own. You may also need a 9 pin extension cable depending on how close together all of your components reside. The SteppIR controller must have the transceiver option. Choose Kenwood in the menu setting. You also have to make a configuration change on your K3. CONFIG:AUTOINF to AUTO 1 If you are a member of the SteppIR Yahoo group you can find PDFs for these cables in the Files section. The Y cable PDF does a good job of illustrating how to use it. If you are not a member it would probably be a good idea to join. https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/SteppIR/info You can also e-mail me directly and I can send you the PDFs. k2mk dot mike at gmail dot com 73, Mike K2MK The Wizard wrote > Ok, guys, I will be getting a new 3 element SteppIR soon.
