[Elecraft] KPA-500 FCC docs

[Tim Tucker]

I'm a licensed Navy MARS operator.  It is not uncommon to have very long
digital messages that need to be sent using digital modes that will take
longer than 10 minutes to send.  This limitation pretty much eliminates this
amplifier from being able to be used in my shack for MARS purposes.  Now
with that said, we don't often need to use an amplifier to send digitally,
but in the event I did, I couldn't do it with this amp if there is a 10
minute duty cycle.
