Hi again Wayne,
This does work. My only issue is that when I'm on 40 meters my
Microwave station is on 5760MHz and so on. I will need to do something
to alert my switching system that the radio is on HF. You have the
benefit of knowing that inside the radio :-)
Is there a signal I can find
Hi Phil,
When you're using the K3's low-power transverter output (XVTR OUT), the DIGOUT0
line changes state. We provided this to allow for external hardware decoding of
HF vs. transverters. Check page 19 and let me know if this helps.

Wayne,
That will absolutely take care of it. Thank you.

In the KPA cable going to the K3 the band data lines are called out, yet
there is no discussion about instructing the K3 firmware to set band
data. My band data is used for transverters with Config:KIO3 set to
TRN. If these lines are not used and band information is derived from
AUXBUS,
The KPA only talks on the Auxbus, it does not listen. So yes, the four BAND
signals are needed.

Thanks Jack, then I must be changing my KIO3 Setting back and forth
between TRN and Normal based on HF use or VHF use? right

Jack Brindle,
Phil,
Could use use the HF-TRN setting of the BAND outputs? (Page 19 of the K3
owner's manual, right column, first paragraph.)
This setting was specifically included to handle the situation where both HF
and VHF band switching is required. Further details are provided on this page.
If that
Wayne,
I hadn't noticed that when I first set this up (years ago). I will try,
don't see why not. Only exception is that my 6m is TRN, but that
shouldn't matter since I won't use the KPA on 6m.
Thanks,

OK, Phil. Let me know if this works.
