[Elecraft] KPA500 and KAT500 Ports

[Dave Wright]

I'll second that Alpha-Delta reference.  Full band coverage on 40/20/15/10,
plus about 100kHz on 75/80, partial-full coverage on 17m although it isn't
cut for it, and some 6m as well.  Full coverage 80m-6m with tuner...and even
160m, but the efficiency has to be terrible.

And easily handles 500w+
