[Elecraft] kpa800 question

[Steve]

The amp I saw Friday at the FDIM hotel was an independent unit.  While the
specific question did not arrise during Q&A with Wayne & Eric, it would be
difficult to imagine a design of this class *requiring* a K2 to drive it.  I
did not note any special control cable from the K2/100 to the amp.
