Check that -- one small error in prior post.  The Twins configuration includes 
the KPA100, not the 500.  Can't type.  Or can't think.  One or the other.

     Having used the KPA1500 long enough to be confident that mine has no 
obvious bugs, I am trying to decide whether to keep my KPA500 / KAT500 or put 
it up for sale.
    
    One possibility would be to use the 500s with a K2.  I have a K2 with the 
integral KPA100, and two without.  The K2/100 has an RCA jack for the amp 
keying line which should make things easy - just connect one end to the KPA100 
and the other to the KPA500, yes?  
    
    Using a K2 alone as driver for the KPA500 is the question.  There must be 
an amplifier keying line somewhere in the K2 circuitry, since it can key a 
KPA500 [should have read KPA100] in the two-box "twins" configuration; but 
there is no mechanical output for it.  Anyone done this who can help with 
ideas?  
    
    What kind of output from the KPA500 is possible with a barefoot K2 driving 
it?  Anything else I should know before trying this out?
    
    The band data is not a problem in either case, since the KPA500 has a 
one-dit sensing circuit which will be adequate.  (It also has band selection 
buttons, of course.)
    
    Tnx, as always, for any advice,
