True, except he asked about the KAT500, not the KPA500.

Rob,
The KAT500 is still in development.

But, we have been told that it will handle up to 500W into a 10:1 SWR on
160M-6M, and handle a kilowatt with up to 3:1 SWR. It has been described as
using latching relays, to minimize current consumption. There will be a
desktop version, in a P3 sized case, and a remote version for mounting at
the antenna feedpoint. It will integrate well with the K3, of course, but
also be able to "speak" the tune protocol of other rigs.

I am sure other details will be leaking out soon.
