Doug: The remote and radio band data connectors are specialized connections. They are for use with Ameritron supplied cables only.  DB-DB15HE I did see that the HV power supplies do have current limiting which would imply there is some protection from excessive current based on load

[Elecraft] K3 and ALS1306 Amplifier ALC
