I don't remember seeing Elecraft promise anything in regards to a
KPA-1500. Someone saw a prototype at a Hamfest two years ago and most
everybody "assumed" it would go into production.

Doing a 160-6m solid state amp @ 1500W is going to take some mad
engineering chops and the market is puny.

Does the KPA-500 do SO2R? I see one input connector.

It's too easy to make that kind of power with tubes and I doubt Elecraft
want to take on Acom or Alpha.
