[Elecraft] KPA500 feature suggestion - band bypass

[Phil & Debbie Salas]

Tony - There is a menu set-up option in the KPA500 such that it can either 
be set to stay in OPERATE when you change bands, or drop to STANDBY when you 
change bands.

"Like most hams, I use an antenna tuner on some bands. When I switch to 
those
bands, the amp will automatically switch but of course it will have to be
put in standby so I can adjust the tuner. I'm sure this is a common
situation, shared by many others.

The auto-bandswitch function of the amp should have an option to put the amp
into standby. Otherwise, it will guarantee that eventually the amp will be
operated into a mismatch and something will hot switch and/or blow.
