Do you have any tools, soldering iron?
Hacksaw blade comes to mind, maybe a couple of quarters for pads,

in on the sound card.
In an ideal world, you will get the the RJ-45 connector
repaired, either locally with someone who can re-solder the
surface mount connector or by getting it repaired by Elecraft.

I do believe that BHI Ltd ( Graham) has been using that for years...
check out their website . Under downloads there are several examples
of how well it works,.( really well...)

No, that’s not it. The right is ALREADY in split mode when i attempt to use the
auto-tune.
You get the N/A flash if VFO A and B aren’t set to the same mode, other than
SSB/CW.
WSJT-X sets it up correctly, with both VFOs in DATA mode.

glad I can work around it.
Split mode is often configured due to the WSJT-X settings, depending on the
frequencies used.

Update on this - this problem with the KAT3 ATU not working on 6m appears to be
intermittent. Sometimes it will tune, sometimes it won’t. Weird.

It is certainly not a clone. It draws more RX current. It is a
thinner. The panadapter is built in.
I didn't spend enough time looking at it to form a judgement
other than it appeals to the same uses as the KX3 and is not a clone.

I was #12 for the KX3. It was a field test. They do more in house now rather
for more technical engineering feedback, I would guess.
