[Elecraft] KPA-800 & KPA 1500

[Rudy Bakalov]

This is a great, healthy discussion that can help determine the need for an Elecraft branded amp. If we can't come up with a good set of features that are not met by current products, then perhaps it will be difficult to make the case there should be an Elecraft made amp.

My dream product is a SO2R appliance that does all the RX/TX switching between 2 radios, including bandpass filters and remote antenna selection.  1500 W out, no time limit, RTTY included.  Think of a 1500 W version of SPE, plus built-in W3NQN filters and Array Solution's SixPack.  2 inputs, 2 CATs, 2 PTTs, 6 or 10 remotely controlled outputs.

Currently, there is not product that comes even close to such feature set.
