I use two transceivers with my station.  The K3S, P3, KPA500 and KAT500.   Also have a Tentec Eagle which is the 2nd transceiver. I have a  A / B switch in the coax line between the transceivers output and the input to the KPA500.  The AUX buss is connected in the K3S configuration.  The Eagle

No, but it does respond to frequency changes from the K3 which may provide some strange results. If the K3 is on and you spin the big knob while using the KWM2, the KAT will respond to the K3’s QSY. If you change bands on the K3, BOTH the KAT and the KPA will also change bands. And (most strange

Greetings all and thank you for a great list with lots of great information! Help me understand something on the KAT500. I have the Elecraft “Dream” setup as I think it is called with the K3s, KAT500, KPA500, and P3. I love it. I have trained the KAT500 according to instructions. My question is
