Expanding on the "two different levels based on the amps OPER/STBY
switch" described by Dick, the cable enables those two levels per band.
For example, you can adjust the Operate level on 30 meters for a full
200 legal watts; 300 watts on 10, 15 and 30 into your TA33 Junior
tri-bander; and the amp's full output into your dipoles.

See pages 15, 16, and 27 of the KPA500 Owner's manual for a description of
what the 15-pin ACC cable can do for you.
It amounts to band information both ways so the amp can switch bands from
the K3's band information before you provide RF, the KPA500 front panel band
buttons can bandswitch the K3, and K3 drive power can be set to two
different levels based on the amp's OPER/STBY switch. My K3 provides 30
watts when the amp is in OPER, and 100 watts when the amp is in STBY.

Subject: [Elecraft] KPA500 with K3s
Good morning,
I am building the KPA500. I have the K3s. Can anyone explain, in simple
terms, what advantage there is in using the KPAK3AUX cable instead of just
using the Key Line cable?
Thanks,
Dave, K4TO
