Me too, if it will drive at least a 3:1 mismatch.

Why not buy the KPA500?  Because it's not at least 1KW.  I see no need to
replace a perfectly good tube amp capable of 2+ KW to get auto band
switching functionality. I can band switch and retune faster than I can
justify the expense of a new amp, lol.  Give me a KPA1000 and I can probably
talk myself into selling the tube amp and going the solid state route.
