Andy,
    Thanks, but I'm not using software I wrote.  I'm using the remote software from Elecraft, and that is the software I'm talking about not seeing if the power is on or off.   I was hoping that I was just missing seeing something.

"I use the KAT500 remote software and it works great. I have only one problem with 
it, I can not tell if the power is on or off."

If a KAT500 is powered but off it will respond to command ps; with PS0;
If a KAT500 is powered and on it will respond to command ps; with PS1;
If a KAT500 is not powered it will not on it will not respond to ps;

Powered status can also be found by checking the response to ;
No response if not powered
; response if powered.

Hopefully any remote control software you use will be smart enough to apply 
these tests and indicate the result.
