I'd still suspect the config settings, this test just showed that the
KAT-500 is doing well mechanically. The tuner is getting a signal from
the K3 telling it what band you're on so appears to be limiting your
options based on that band. You can repeat the mode/ant test with the
radio off, you

Thanks for the suggestion. Good test.
It turns out that Yes, I can change antennas now on 50 MHz when I disconnect
control cables. H.
I reconnect the control cables, and the symptom of not being able to change to
antennas other than antenna 3 on 50 MHz, returns.
So one
With power only, no control cables plugged in so it's essentially
isolated from anything external, are you able to switch between modes
and antennas?

I had something similar on my KAT-500 where I could not get to antenna
connection 3.
What I did was to do the update of the software and then open it to
manually turn on antenna 3 and it was fine.
I have the cable if you need to do that.

Hi all,
Despite my making what-I-think are appropriate changes in the KAT500 utility
(MacOS version), I am not able to switch antennas for 6 meters (50 MHz).
KAT500 always stays on Antenna 3.
My work-around solution has been to put my antenna w/ 50 MHz capability on
Antenna 3.
