KPA1500 Remote works fine as a local control program. Use the Local Connect
option.

The KXUSB cable from back of Flex to amp is best method to have amp (and amp 
internal tuner) track radio frequency and band.

For control of amp, plug the amp Into your network (Ethernet port) then run the 
KPA1500 Remote app for normal operation. You can run the KPA1500 Utility via 
network for any configuration. Note - only one of the two apps can run at one 
time, so use the utility to configure amp them Remote app for control and 
monitoring. Works very well.

[Elecraft] Using KPA1500 with Flex6600

2022-06-21 Thread Ray Spreadbury via Elecraft
I am just getting a Flex6600 to replace my Elecraft transceiver and intend 
connecting the Flex radio to the amp using an Elecraft KXUSB cable ie. FTDI USB 
to Serial, which I believe is the recommended method for auto band switching of 
the KPA1500.
Is there software available for controlling the KPA1500 on my Windows PC as I 
would like to locate the amp below my operating desk? I suspect I can do this 
using the KPA1500 Utility program but wondered if there is a better method or 
3rd party software for this purpose?
