I use MacLoggerDX (MLDX) for QSO logging, among other tasks. It interfaces very 
nicely between my K3 and the MacBook Air laptop. The K3 passes a lot of data 
(including power output level) to MLDX and it winds up in my log. However, when 
I'm using the KPA500, the K3 only sends the driving power that it outputs to 
the amp. What I wind up with in my log is incorrect. For example, if the KPA500 
is in OPERATE mode and I log a QSO, it'll get reported as a QSO made using 25 
watts or power, instead of the 450 - 500 that the amp is putting out. Since the 
K3 and the KPA500 "speak the same language" and talk to each other, can the 
firmware be changed so that the K3 sends corrected Power Out level to the 
output data port when the KPA500 is engaged? As it is now, I have to go back 
into MLDX after every QRO contact and change the power field to reflect the 
actual power and not the K3's driving power.
