How did you do it? That is, what connections are required other that the
K3 RF out to the amp RF input?
Study the manuals for both units. For all the amps I've used (three
different Ten Tecs, an ACOM, both KPAs), Key Out from the K3 to Key In
for the amp was all I needed, but it depends on the positive/negative
logic of the amp. In a well-designed amp, the Key Input will drive a
transistor, so very little current. You may also need to set a longer
delay in the K3 do allow for the amp's T/R relay(s) to pull in. I
remember a longer setting being required for an Ameritron I encountered
at a contest multi, but that was from an FT1000MP. There's a menu setting.
