You know, it occurred to me that it would be a nice feature if Elecraft
would
make the power output drop to 2-3 watts during KAT100 tuning even if the
KPA is
activated.  Although one is supposed to find a clear frequency before
tuning up,
accidents happen and this would reduce the resulting QRM by 10 db.
