I know that one of the Fred Cady books I have here shows that hookup
with either the KPA500/KAT500 'power combo' or the KPA1500 w/ATU, so
yes, it is supported.
As far as ATU's go, you should only have the ATU in the unit that is
connected to the coax going to your antenna enabled. All others
downstream from there should be bypassed, as they are looking into a
nominal 50-ohm load.

This question may have been answered in the past.
I have a KX3 and a KPA100, both with ATUs. Can I power up my TX via
addition of a KPA1500, assuming I upgrade my antenna (Buckmaster
300watt OCFD 8 bander) to the 3000 watt version ? If feasible without
risk of blowing up anything, and assuming the KPA 1500 also has a
built-in autotuner, at what stage should auto tuner control be
established?
Thanks, and 73’s
