The KPA500 and KAT500 both detect transmitting frequency with as little
as a tap on the mic or a dit at 35 wpm, and switch almost
instantaneously. All they need is PTT (Amp Key) from the rig to an RCA
jack that loops through the KPA500 to the KAT500 with an RCA-RCA jumper.
That "loop-through" allows the KPA500 to prevent auto-tuning while the
power amp is active. The KAT500 has three operating modes that can be
programmed from Elecraft's control program -- Auto, Manual, and Bypass.
In general, the KAT500 remembers the last settings you used the last
time you were on that band, and for which of the three outputs.

no information about adding the KPA500/KAT500 into the mix as I
do not know if/how the KPA500/KAT500 acquires frequency/band data
from the TS-480.
