[Elecraft] KPA500 and KAT500 Ports

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

Hi Gary,

We simply do not have umlimited staff and do not want to get ahead of 
ourselves by releasing details too early.  We have a lot of projects in 
the fire. :-)  The KAT500 is under active development right now, but 
putting more details at this time is premature.  What I can say is that 
the first unit is a compact desktop ATU as I described in my earlier 
email. If a remote version comes out, it will be after this unit.

73, Eric  WA6HHQ
