"As far as I know, no one makes a full 1500 watt output, continuous-duty, no
time limit, "brick on the key" amplifier that covers 160-6 meters with full
QSK and "instant on".  It would be nice to have a built in precision
wattmeter, too."

I mostly operate barefoot, but when I need an amp I find that first 500-600 
watts makes a big difference.  So I'd like a 500-600 watt amp, full QSK, 
160-6 meters with auto band switching when connected to the K3.  Use a 
separate switching power supply to keep everything lightweight so it is easy 
to take places with you.  And keep the autotuner and precision power meter 
separate as well.
