     I would love to see a very accurate wattmeter with three ranges,
1-5 W, 1-100 W, and 1-1500 W.  Ideally, the indicator would be an LED bar 
graph just like the one used in the Alpha 87 amplifiers.  Super cool would 
be a wattmeter with a display head that has two LED bar graphs and two sense 
elements - perfect for two radio contest operation.

     Another great toy would be a transverter interface box that handled
automatically switching between several transverters.  If it could make 
going from 10M to 6M to 2M as simple as it is to go from 20M to 15M to 10M
now, that would be awesome.

     Although I already have several Astron linear power supplies, I 
might be interested in an Elecraft switching power supply kit.  It might
be fun to build a power supply (I've never done it before) and maybe 
the kit would be useful for teaching people how to make RF-quiet 
switchers.
