I seem to recall that those jumpers were for use with certain rotors, possibly those with relays? I would have to dig the KCT documentation out of the garage, and it's below zero here right now...

Hello everyone! I use the KCT to control my rotor, which works fine. However... I was looking through the junk drawer tonight, and found the original anti-static bag which has two 14 pin IC-style jumper boards inside. One of them has only 2 jumpers - one between pins 1 & 3, the other jumper between pins 4 & 6. These are both made with blue wire. The other IC block has a solder bridge between pins 2 & 3 and 5 & 6. Did these come with the board in its early stages of design? Does it even belong with the KCT? Just curious what these are for. I don't recall reading in the manual about them, either (tracker OR tuner). TIA... Larry N1MIW FN41
