[Elecraft] External Power Supply for the KPA-500

[Edward Dickinson, III]

Would moving the Power Supply out of the KPA500 enclosure leave room for a
2nd 500 RF deck inside the K3-sized enclosure?  Could two 500 Power supplies
fit in another K3-sized enclosure?

Hello All, Just a thought....but how about a external power supply for the
KPA-500 ? It would leave plenty of room for a built In antenna tuner ?

I agree, I don't mind an under the counter supply.

I think an internal power supply for the KPA500 with an external ATU from
Elecraft makes a lot more sense.  The power supply is very likely to be a
dedicated supply due to voltage level and current draw requirements but a
good external and self-contained auto-tuner (legal limit would be nice) from
Elecraft would be a very popular product.

<snip> I suspect that the KPA500 will bootstrap Elecraft into a higher-power
amp in the same size box with an external power supply, but that's
wild speculation.
