This sounds like there is no RF going into the KPA500. When the KPA500 is in STBY mode and he transmits, do the KPA500 indicators show the proper power level to match what he thinks the K3 is outputting? He might insert a wattmeter between the K3 and KPA500 to make sure that power is going into

I am writing this for a friend, who for now, has limited access to he list. He has a KPA500/KAT500/K3. All was working fine last time he used it. Today, the amp comes on, but no power. Here are the details... 1. Amp shows the "*" when it keys. 2. K3 shows KPA500 ON, when the amp comes on.
