[Elecraft] KAT500 and KPA500

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

Our design team is actively working on the KAT500 right now, both on the 
hardware and software.

Its certainly a bit more work than simply scaling up the KAT3 etc. :-)  
Several members of the KAT500 team are also involved in parts the KX3 
development, so the the two projects do impact one another a small amount.

We're shooting for having the KAT500 out before the end of the year and 
will publish more info on it as we get closer.

73, Eric  WA6HHQ
