The new KX3 looks really neat and it has a couple of very nice features. The

Anyone here has experience with making the KRC2 work with Kenwood.

I use the MFJ-4716, 6 port Remote antenna switch. I believe there is also a
4 port switch. This switch is very easy to connect to the KRC2 and works at
KW level. Each relais can be activated with 12 V volt from the KRC2. You can
