George, The K3 keys up to 200 volts POSITIVE via the Key Out jack in the back. If your amps require negative voltage to be keyed you will need an outboard relay.
You really do not need ALC, but if you want to use it, the signal is on the accessory jack. Be sure your K3 has the negative ALC mods incorporated. The K3's RF output (antenna connection) will go to the amp's input. Your KANT3 will not be needed except when the amp is bypassed; if installed, disable it with the ATU button on the K3. That's it - 2 or 3 connections depending on ALC usage or not. My K3 works great with my Ameritron ALS600 amp.
